BlinkerStops reduce incomplete stops and blow-throughs!

BlinkerSigns warn drivers up to TWO MILES AWAY!
Brilliant LED technology makes roads safer. TAPCO’s brilliant innovation of enhancing traffic signs with LEDs (Light-Emitting Diodes) is helping to reduce accidents and save lives across the country. Day-Viz™ (Daylight Visible BlinkerSigns®) feature an array of incredibly bright LEDs that flash in unison, once per second, commanding the attention of drivers DAY AND NIGHT as no other traffic sign can.

Long range Visibility. The increased visibility provided by super bright Day-Viz™ LEDs (visible even in bright daylight) and 3M™VIP Diamond Grade™ or DG3™ sheeting gives drivers notice much further in advance than conventional signs, allowing them to react sooner. BlinkerSigns can be seen up to two miles away!

Bigger is Better. A 30" BlinkerSign has a “footprint” of 6.25 square feet of brilliant flasher. 6.25 times larger than 12" beacons, and over 10 times larger than 8" beacons! A larger footprint means better visibility and conspicuity.

Fully Encapsulated Wiring

Inexpensive, Eco-friendly Power. Day-Viz™ Blinker- Signs® operate on solar power and long life nickel-metal hydride batteries, so no electrical installation is required. (110 VAC models are also available) LEDs require much less power and last years longer than conventional lighting.

Install in any sunny location, without the expense of installing electrical service. BlinkerSigns® are designed to run without any sun for 2 weeks or more, and can run 24/7 under even the worst weather conditions. You may also move the unit wherever it is needed, making it a wise choice for new and temporary traffic conditions.

BlinkerSign® technology extends the visible
range of any traffic sign, both day and night!

Applications

If you have an application requiring higher levels of sign conspicuity,
WE CAN DO IT WITH BLINKERSIGNS!

Increases sign conspicuity, critical for limited sight distances
Traffic safety can be compromised by several conditions, including vertical and horizontal curves, obstructions such as trees and buildings, and even ambient light sources such as neon signs and other commercial lighting. BlinkerSigns® may be installed any place where increased sign conspicuity is beneficial. If desired, they may be replaced with conventional signage when the public becomes acclimated to the new condition. Hard-wired models are available for applications wherever warranted, such as inside parking ramps or when used in conjunction with other hard-wired traffic control devices.

Alerts aging and inattentive drivers sooner than conventional signage
The increasing proportion of aging driving population is a major concern of traffic officials. Studies show that as drivers age, their visual acuity declines. BlinkerSigns counteract the lessened ability to recognize traffic sign messages. BlinkerSigns also combat driver inattention due to cell phones and other distractions.

Self-Contained unit saves on installation and maintenance costs
BlinkerSigns are delivered to you ready to be installed on any sign post. Everything you need is attached to the sign. They are easily installed on any sign post or signal pole without the costs associated with installing electrical service or a signal box to the installation site.

BlinkerSigns® are Smart - Real Smart
They can be integrated with an ITS (Intelligent Transportation System) or operate as a stand-alone ITS. BlinkerSigns can be synchronized with each other, and are programmable to work with solar time clocks, push-buttons and motion (vehicle) detectors using solar and wireless radio signal technology.
