Expert Insights

The Model 400 is a reliable workhorse barricade light suitable for most standard work zone applications. The built-in photocell automatically activates the light at dusk and deactivates at dawn, conserving battery life and eliminating the need for field crews to manually switch lights on and off each day. Per MUTCD Section 6F.83, Type A steady-burn lights are required for channelizing devices that guide traffic through a work zone, while Type C low-intensity flashing lights are used for warning at advance positions. The 3-way switch allows you to select the appropriate mode for each barricade position. Mount lights on the top of A-Frame barricade legs or directly on barrier rails using the included hardware. Position the light facing approaching traffic for maximum visibility. The amber polycarbonate lens is UV-stabilized to prevent yellowing and maintain light output over extended outdoor deployments. For high-speed highway applications where maximum visibility is critical, consider the Model 2006 which offers enhanced durability with its snap-lock co-polymer case and breakaway internal candle that reduces damage from vehicle strikes.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many lights come in one order?

This product is sold as a 10-pack. You receive 10 Model 400 LED Barricade Lights per order at the listed price.

What batteries does the Model 400 require?

The Model 400 uses a standard 6V lantern battery (not included). One battery powers the light for approximately 200-300 hours on flash mode and 100-150 hours on steady mode, depending on battery quality and ambient temperature.

What is the difference between Flash and Steady modes?

Flash mode (Type C per MUTCD) produces a low-intensity flashing amber light used for warning at advance barricade positions. Steady mode (Type A per MUTCD) produces a continuous amber light used for channelization devices that guide traffic through the work zone.

Does the photocell really save battery life?

Yes. The built-in photocell automatically turns the light on at dusk and off at dawn. This means the light only operates during the approximately 10-12 hours of darkness, effectively doubling or tripling the battery life compared to lights left on 24/7.

How does the Model 400 compare to the Model 2006?

The Model 400 is the standard-duty option with a polypropylene case and 6V power. The Model 2006 is the heavy-duty upgrade with a snap-lock co-polymer case, breakaway internal candle for impact resistance, and 3V battery-saving technology that uses four D-cell batteries instead of a lantern battery.

Can I mount this light on both A-Frame legs and barrier rails?

Yes. The included standard mounting hardware allows attachment to A-Frame barricade legs, barrier rails (both economy and I-beam), and most other traffic control devices with compatible mounting points.
