California Residents: Proposition 65 Warning














































































Upgraded from a cheap knockoff light, and I’m seriously impressed. The design is sharp, feels solid, heavy and wellbuilt and the light output is next level. These things cut through daylight! we need to stay visible to avoid another accident caused by poor daytime visibility. Do it once and do it right.
These are WAAY brighter than the Ecco lights we used before. These are actuall visible even under the Arizona sun… exactly what we need for daytime road side construction. Side by side there is just no comparison. At night the others are fine, but since we work 90% of the time in daylight, Yellow jacket is what we have been using for about 1 year now. We will eventually switch all the trucks if they offer bulk pricing?
