Watch for the walk up Behind you

[njrqs]

Yes on job sites I never walk behind or beside a machine until the operator has eyeballed me.

Then you KNOW he has seen you.............

Harv - You haven't seen these lights yet. Think about the brightest red LED ones you see some of the tractor-trailers using for brake and turn signals nowadays. Then triple it. That should give you an idea. Did you see the link I posted earlier for their web site? They showed some brightness comparisons on one of their pages.

Yep, Neil, I use the same technique we used with approaching helicopters. Never get close to that rotor unless you and the pilot are looking straight at each other.

We are working on a place now and the lady's boyfriend was just killed a couple weeks ago when he got caught up in an auger on a construction site. Tractors and equipment are fun but also dangerous so everyone please use your head when you are using them.

Sounds like if you turn them on right now I would probably see a glow in the eastern sky.

Yes, I read your earlier comments and saw the web page you referenced, but I guess it's one of those things you have to see to understand. From what you say, I've probably been seeing them on big rigs, but didn't realize what I was seeing.

How 'bout we forget the strobe idea?

Harv - I'm going to try to wire one set of them up in a few minutes to see what kind of picture I can get in the dark. I'll post the results, if any...

Harv - So, did you see the Southern lights? /w3tcompact/icons/grin.gif (The pics are posted, as promised...)
