stalteri Posted November 22, 2005 Posted November 22, 2005 Hey does anyone know where I can find a strobe light to put on the top of my flagpole on 5th wheel. I've seen some out at Dumont but don't know where I can get one. THANKS! Prefer somewhere in Vegas but any suggestions are welcome Quote
EY3BA11 Posted November 22, 2005 Posted November 22, 2005 Check out a aviation shop.. most of them are 12volt lights anyhow.. i just dont know if the ballast is on the light or if it has to be mounted elsewhere... there is a shop off eastern and sunset right there in the same plaza as that audio place... cant miss it..

Vegas FX400 Posted November 22, 2005 Posted November 22, 2005 My nieghbor bought one for halloween that runs off batteries, but im not quite sur where he got it. I think walmart or radio shack Quote
westbrookj71 Posted November 22, 2005 Posted November 22, 2005 Oh great, there are going to be more then one out there? That was my clue to look for the strobe light when I get there Thursday night Quote
dunefreak Posted November 22, 2005 Posted November 22, 2005 westbrookj71, I don't think you know what you're in for. Here are a few pics of when its a little crowded out at Dumont. There will probably be a few hundred strobe lights out there this weekend. Quote
westbrookj71 Posted November 22, 2005 Posted November 22, 2005 I know, just got off the phone with my friend they are leaving tomorrow & she said I'm nuts driving out @ night by myself, what do you guys think? Am I over reacting? : Quote
dunefreak Posted November 22, 2005 Posted November 22, 2005 Its not hard to find Dumont at night, but to find someone's camp if you've never been there- YES. See if your friends can meet you at a spot like the ranger station or vendor row. You know some sort of landmark at a specific time. If we ever have a newbie coming out to our camp, I just find out about when they will be pulling in and I just sit down at the entrance by the ranger station and keep an eye out for them. Quote
westbrookj71 Posted November 22, 2005 Posted November 22, 2005 yeah I hear you, 'm just getting nervous now, I heard Cingular doesn't get service out ther but Verizon does. thanks for the info Quote

mineurbiz Posted January 21, 2010 Posted January 21, 2010 Funny thing about alot of strobes and flag pole lights is they look so bright at camp, then when you get off in a distance with all the other camps, it is not that bright lol. Quote
jackxclan Posted January 21, 2010 Posted January 21, 2010 http://www.polesandholders.com/home.ph pretty bright and low current draw Quote
mineurbiz Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 Whelen is what the emergency vehicles use, they are pricey, but very bright. http://www.whelen.com/home.php Quote
SandBurro Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 Pepboys autoparts, in the ghetto ricer car accesories section for about 10 bucks. Quote
dunefreak Posted January 22, 2010 Posted January 22, 2010 guys! this is from Nov 2005, right after we started the site. I doubt Tony cares about a strobe light anymore. Quote
