Wagan Tech F.R.E.D. Light Pro Red
Why Choose The Wagan Tech FRED Light Pro Red?
Unlike traditional roadside flares that burn out after a single use, the Wagan Tech FRED Light Pro Red provides reusable LED emergency lighting with multiple operating modes. Strong magnets and dual metal hooks make it easy to position the light where it's needed, while its 360-degree visibility helps increase awareness in low-light roadside situations.
Wagan Tech FRED Light Pro Red Features That Help You Stay Visible
Six Lighting Modes For Different Emergency Situations
The built-in LED system provides one flashlight mode along with five emergency lighting patterns, allowing you to select the mode that best fits your surroundings.
- 150-lumen flashlight mode
- 50-lumen emergency flare lighting
- Five emergency flash patterns
- 360-degree visibility up to one mile
- 12 LEDs with six white and six red LEDs
This flexibility allows the light to serve as both an everyday flashlight and an emergency warning device.
Waterproof Construction So You Can Use It In Tough Conditions
Weather doesn't always cooperate during roadside emergencies. The FRED Light Pro is rated IP67, allowing it to withstand rain and wet environments. It also floats and is submersible up to 1 meter for up to 30 minutes, making it suitable for marine environments and other outdoor applications where water exposure is possible.
Strong Magnets And Metal Hooks For Flexible Placement
Positioning emergency lighting quickly can make a difference when visibility is limited. Strong integrated magnets allow attachment to many metal vehicle surfaces, while the double metal hooks provide additional mounting options when magnetic attachment isn't practical.
Battery Power For Simple, Ready-To-Go Operation
The light operates using three AA batteries, making replacements easy to find at most stores. A single power button controls on, off, and mode selection for straightforward operation.
- Uses 3 AA batteries
- Simple push-button operation
- Compact size of approximately 4.8 x 4.8 x 1.5 inches
- Lightweight design at approximately 0.7 pounds
Depending on the selected lighting mode, runtime ranges from approximately 5 hours to 100 hours.
Real-World Applications
The Wagan Tech FRED Light Pro Red is designed for situations where portable emergency lighting can improve safety and visibility.
- Roadside emergencies and disabled vehicles
- Vehicle emergency preparedness kits
- RV travel and camping
- Marine and boating emergency equipment
- Utility and maintenance vehicles
- Remote job sites and mobile work vehicles
- Nighttime outdoor activities requiring temporary lighting
Because it floats and offers waterproof protection, it can also be useful around docks, boats, or other wet environments where conventional emergency lights may be less practical.
How It Compares To Traditional Roadside Flares
Traditional burning flares are disposable and produce heat and flame during operation. The Wagan Tech FRED Light Pro Red uses LED lighting instead of an open flame and functions as a reusable emergency warning light. It also doubles as a flashlight, offers multiple flash patterns, and can be used repeatedly by replacing the batteries when needed.
Is The Wagan Tech FRED Light Pro Red Right For You
This emergency light is an excellent choice for customers who want a compact, reusable visibility tool without the complexity of rechargeable systems.

- You want a reusable roadside emergency warning light.
- You keep an emergency kit in your car, truck, SUV, or RV.
- You need a waterproof emergency light for boating or outdoor activities.
- You want both a flashlight and emergency warning light in one compact device.
