Five-0 "Emergency Beacon" by "5-0 Emergency Products" "Five-0 Dash Light"

A quick look at a cool light. The company that made this is no longer in business. It is a halogen light that is typically used as a dash light. This light has a magnet and removable flashback shield. It could be used as a roof "throw light" but is not weather resistant. Their is a color film between 2 clear lenses so changing the color is a snap.

This is probably the best video on KZbin profiling the Five-O light. I've seen a couple other videos but they're not near as good as this and they don't show the inside of the light and it's design like this one does. I've seen numerous Five-O's listed on Ebay but they're typically in poor condition but this one looks great and includes all it's parts. That said, these lights look like they use track-lighting bulbs!

John Hancock Thank you. It was just ment to show the operation of the light. I purchased this one new for under $100 back around 2001. I think it is the same bulb used as takedowns/alleys in some LP6000 and other lightbars. I like the light but being fully enclosed it gets extremely hot in just a few minutes.

@@MsLightbar High heat was the only drawback of these halogen revolving dash lights. I have a collection of Fireball, Fireball 2 and Firebeam halogen dash lights (among various others by Whelen and SVP) and all of them are extremely bright but after even a short time they get so hot you can barely touch the polycarbonate domes.

Where can I purchase this light

I know this is from two years ago but even back then the only place you would likely find them is on Ebay.
