Client Profile: Pro-Tech Roofing

If you work in the construction industry, you know how important it is to maintain safety for your crew and for the public while on the jobsite. Many of our products are heavily used for safety purposes in the construction industry, and this client is no exception. Pro-Tech Roofing is a Chicago land based commercial roofing company, with crews working at several jobsites with Ford F-250 trucks during any given time.

Wicked Warnings has worked together with Pro-Tech Roofing to service their jobsite safety needs. We installed a number of our products on their work trucks such as our Wicked Mirror Mod, LED HAW DUO, along with, side, and rear-mounted TIR-3 strobes. This client has both white and amber colored lighting, and the strobes follow an x-pattern in the third brake light and taillights as well as the headlight lenses and parking light lenses. Flush mounted bumper lights are activated when the vehicle is in reverse for added safety on the jobsite in conjunction with a 92db reverse alarm. In addition to safety and emergency lighting, we also installed the Carson PA system. The client uses the PA system to easily communicate with the crews on rooftops to ensure all members hear announcements clearly.

Pro-Tech Roofing primarily works in heavily congested areas such as hospitals, apartment complexes, and airports. The warning lights on the work trucks allow passersby and motorists to see the area of construction ahead and to proceed with caution. Director of Operations Bill Marcum Jr. says, “Working with Wicked Warnings has been an absolute pleasure. George is very knowledgeable, professional, and an all around great person to deal with from start to end. Everywhere I go from work sites to crusin’ the town on a Friday night, people compliment my truck’s lighting”.

Video Demonstration of Wire Swap Installation for Auto Flasher Kits - Molex Connector Pin Removal & Replacement

What are the Wicked Auto Flasher Kits & how do they work?

Wicked Warnings has been around since 2005 with stellar references and we have been using our WAF (Wicked Auto Flasher) module since early 2016 with zero reported vehicle failures. There is no known risk to using any factory lighting as flashers that we are aware of. Of course, all your factory lights will always revert to factory function when the strobes are not being used.

Many of our builds feature a combination of factory lighting as well as purpose-built emergency lights to create a more effective display, so we urge you to consider more than just factory strobe lighting on your build. We have many options available to supplement the factory lighting.

How does the Auto Flasher connect to my truck anyway?

We have 3 connection methods used in our WAF (Wicked Auto Flasher) kits. The way that we manipulate the factory lighting is through the wires. We DO NOT reprogram any of the computers. Everything we do is easily reversible, and any number of individual kits can be combined onto a single switch if desired. There is no single kit to flash all factory lights, as we must retain circuit individuality. The following three methods are used to interface with the factory wires.

  • Wire Cut: In certain lights, like the white cargo light by the third brake, the only way is to cut a single wire (at this time). We understand that some people are uncomfortable cutting wires and we are working hard to offer “cut-free” solutions as fast as we can. This is how some of the current website kits are sold. Sometimes, this is the only option to achieve the desired display.
  • Wire Swap NO CUT: This is by far our favorite solution and how most of the new generation kits will be made if possible. Wire Swap is how ALL the Headlight and Taillight kits are going to be made for the FORD and many GM trucks. We are working to update the current website options to this new “wire swap” kit and will continue noting any changes on the product online as they happen. It really is just as easy as swapping a wire. Again, the kits will have notes in the description stating which version they are. Click here to watch a video showing the Wire Swap method.
  • (NEW & COMING SOON) Plug N Play Extensions: Plug N Play extensions can be purchased for an extra cost. Please bear with us as these are all handmade and fairly difficult to source parts for. We have some availability and are waiting on some parts for others.

We hope this helps to answer any questions about our Auto Flasher Kits and hope you enjoy these products!
