Bought mine 4 years ago,(red,white and blue flashing) :)
I can now get a discount on new ones as i have been in contact with the supplier for some spare parts.

PM if interested. :P

Normally if I google 'flashing whips' on the internet I get something a bit more exciting ;D

I hate to say it, but you are probably going to have to go with red in the UK for legality.

Could be interesting if you wired it up to your brake light through

Might get away with yellow, would certainly make keeping in convoy easier

The red would also show to the front making it illegal but the high level brake light is good thinking, the yellow indicator idea is also good as they would be visible 360 degrees but the positioning on the buggy would be classed as illegal. But saying that trucjkers get away with all sorts of lighting ;)

We may get away with anything but a flashing blue as the plod know that is illegal.

Sorry for the delay, I've been away.
I've had my whip for 4 years and have it on every time I go out. As well as all the engine lights.
The police look but that's as far as it goes. ;-)up (Maybe that's just the local bobbies)

The prices are $85 for the original and $130 for the flashing. But postage is high so may be worth ordering a batch if people are interested.  8)

A group buy would be a good idea, just need to decide what ones to pick though? The Gorilla ones or the Arizona ones.

If they came in at around £70 delivered I could be tempted... Looking at the gorilla ones they are about £100 delivered for buying individually.
