From Hefla come two warning lamps. The SWBL2 is a combination amber-flasher warninglamp and torch, the amber flashing section being visible over 3,000yd at night. The white flood beam gives a powerfu spread of light for roadside repairs.
The other lamp, the Hella SWBL.8, is an amber warningflasher only, which has adjustable legs for standing on uneven road surfaces. Remaining battery life can be checked by means of a test switch. If the lamp still functions when the switch is depressed, a minimum of 15 hours operation is assured.
Both lamps are of a sturdy plastics construction, incorporating fully transistorized printed circuits for operation of the warning light. Five U2 batteries provide the power, and the lamps are Packed in shockproof polystyrene boxes allowing safe stowage on a vehicle.
