Electronic Rain Light Switch


Cartek Electronics

Motorsport electronics experts Cartek believe they have a new product which can dramatically reduce the chance of a very common, yet potentially very dangerous, type of accident. The new Electronic Rain Light Switch from Cartek allows a driver to quickly switch their existing, rear mounted, rain light to hazard warning flashing if they suddenly find themselves in a dangerous situation.

A common, but extremely hazardous, situation is when a driver stalls their engine on the grid at the start of a race. The usual course of action is for the driver to frantically wave their hands in the air hoping that the cars approaching from behind may notice but, all too often, do not until it is too late to avoid collision.

With the Electronic Rain Light Switch the driver can now instantly alert the approaching cars by flicking on the rain light to a rapid flashing mode which will not only be considerably more noticeable but also allows the driver to keep their arms inside the car and set about re-starting their engine.

Other situations when the driver may wish to put their rain light into hazard warning mode include limping around the circuit with a puncture or other car problem or to indicate to drivers of a red flag situation.

The Electronics Rain Light Switch from Cartek is a waterproof, 3 position toggle switch with in-built electronics that offer the driver 3 modes, ON, OFF or Hazard Flashing. It is compatible with all FIA LED rain lights and should be a direct replacement for most light switches.
