Trailer Warning Whips Available from Checkers

The internal wire used on these whips is industrial grade and meets military specifications. Waterproof whips also feature a two-conductor waterproof hotplug with a 12-inch pigtail and an internal ground connection that is designed to reduce power failures. 

Light Duty Warning Whips

Light Duty Warning Whips are a versatile option that is ideal for trailers and towing applications. These whips feature a flexible fiberglass construction that is intended for use with recreational vehicles. Light Duty Whips will help alert pedestrians and motorists to the presence of trailers or flatbeds—even in adverse weather conditions.

Warning Whips Help Prevent Accidents

According to a recent outline of trailer and towing safety from Consumer Reports, maximizing trailer visibility is an essential component in reducing the likelihood of trailer accidents. Warning whips can be easily mounted on trailers to increase driver-to-driver awareness and maximize visibility.

When operating a trailer at night or in adverse weather conditions, it is particularly important to increase visibility. Lighted warning whips use powerful LEDs to provide optimal visibility for drivers and pedestrians in hard-to-see contexts.
