Suggestions for a safety beacon/strobe for car?

Led conversion?

Thanks again for the input, I've actually still got my old Triplight beacon (same as Kojaks teardrop) with yellow and red lens (how it come in the US back in the day) but I can't get the bulbs for it here so no spares.

What bulb is it? Or is it a Xeon strobe tube?

I hadn't thought of an LED conversion. The bulb is the same fitting as the old bayonet fitting indicator bulbs, but it's a lot higher wattage (think it's 40w?) the indicator bulbs are 21w I think.

Ohh they look interesting, the bulb in the light is the same size as the normal indicator bulb, but there is some space between it and the reflector (which rotates) I'll have to have a look later, I'm hoping that they'll do the job. I'll post a pic later so you can see what I mean.
Many thanks Andy.

I think those bulbs will just fit, theres not a lot of spare space but it's worth a go.

Thanks again.

Least with the ring site you get the bulb code and then go to a decent motorfactors or eBay
