What Are Hideaway Strobe Lights?
LED hideaway strobe lights are discrete, concealable strobe lighting options for headlights, tail lights, reverse lights, and turn signal housings. They can also be mounted to a vehicle’s grille, bumper, fender, and front or rear windows. Even though these lights have a compact design, they provide an intense light output. Hideaway strobes can provide up to 37 flash patterns and be synced together. Single and 4-pack options are available.

Do These Strobes Meet SAE Standards?
We carry hideaway strobe lights that meet the SAE (Society for Automotive Engineers) Class 1 or Class 3 ratings. Class 1 ratings refer to warning lights installed on emergency vehicles used on public roads, including police, ambulances, firetrucks, snow plows, and tow trucks. Class 3 ratings refer to lower-intensity warning lights for low-speed vehicles often used inside buildings, such as forklifts, warehouse vehicles, machinery, and more.
How Do I Choose the Hideaway Strobe Lights I Need?
Various factors affect the light you need, including desired color option, height, beam angle (120° to 360°), and voltage. We also carry a hideaway strobe light that meets the California Title 13 Standards. The California Title 13 Standards include strict guidelines for visibility, light intensity, and color, and emergency vehicles, including firetrucks, police cars, and utility vehicles, must meet these standards.

What Do I Need to Know About Hideaway Strobe Lights Installation?
A major factor affecting the installation is the mounting type. Exact mounting options will vary depending on the fixture used, but common types include surface mount, through-hole mount, and flush-mount. The standard mounting supplies are included with your product, but if you’re choosing a different style, such as a flange mount, mounting supplies will need to be purchased separately. Since the specific installation instructions will vary based on the product and mounting type, we provide ‘User Manuals’ on our product pages, which provide safety tips and installation instructions for the specific light.
Are Hideaway Strobe Lights Waterproof and Resistant for Construction and Agriculture?
Yes, our hideaway strobe lights are constructed to endure various conditions, making them ideal for installation on construction and farm equipment. Our hideaway strobe lights have an IP67 waterproof rating, ensuring these lights are water-resistant and submersible, and provide full intrusion protection from dust, bugs, dirt, and other particles. These lights are also equipped with aluminum housing and polycarbonate lenses for increased durability to withstand harsh conditions and vibrations.
