The magnetic base holds on a steel roof or bonnet and comes off by hand. Nothing to drill, nothing to glue. That is what makes it usable on a private vehicle you do not want to modify.<\/p>\n
Older models spin a mirror in front of a bulb: it heats up, it breaks, it draws current. Here the LEDs flash in several patterns; the unit does not heat up and the draw stays compatible with an engine switched off for a while.<\/p>\n
