Video Transcript for Review of Peterson Emergency Supplies - Set of 3 Folding Warning Triangles - PM449

Today, we'll be taking a look at the Peterson Triangle Warning Reflector kit. This is going to be something that you want to keep in your vehicle but hopefully that you never really have to use, something that's going to give us some peace of mind but in the event that we do run into some trouble on the road, this will help to warn other drivers to steer clear or come to our aid.It comes a nice little carrying case, makes it easy to store in a compartment on your RV, in your truck, in your trunk. Just snaps up. It's made of a durable plastic construction and this will measure about 19 inches wide or 19 inches long by about four inches wide and then about four and a half inches tall.The important part is what's inside. We'll have our three triangles that we can set up. These fold away easily so we can fit inside that case and to lift them out, just pull up on either side and then we can snap them together and also turn it out so that it's more stable.This black portion here is weighted with sand to make it more stable especially when we're out on the highway and we're into carrying those gusts of wind as cars pass us by.

This isn't going to get knocked over, even if I give it a few taps there, it's pretty sturdy. And the little tabs on either side to give it some good stability so it's not going anywhere.The red triangle around there is highly visible, has some reflectors to pick up the light of passing cars and that overall orange and red color is just highly visible so it's going to make it a lot safer if we're having to do any kind of repairs, we've got to change a tire, maybe have somebody bring us some gas if we run out. It's going to help drivers to see us earlier than if we just had our flashers on and these can be a much more approachable kit to have in our vehicle rather than having flares. If you've got a new driver at home, somebody who just turned 16, they just got their license and you want to have a little piece of mind by giving them something to keep in their car to make sure that they stay safe, this is going to be a good option.You can always pick up some other items to go with this. We have safety kits available like first aid kits and other things, jumper cables, all that good stuff available here at etrailer.com if you want to add to this kit.

Those are available separately.We will have out three triangles and inside our case, we've got some warnings or some tips on how to set these up. It's hard to see on camera but it's embossed in that case there and it gives you a guidelines of how far apart these need to be which would be about 100 feet from . you put the first one by the vehicle and then a 100 feet, put the next one, and then another 100 feet, put the third or it's also converted into paces and meters depending on what you want to go by. So that just makes it easy to remember how far apart you need to spaces to make sure that you get the most out those reflectors.inaudible 00:03:32 these feel really nice and sturdy. The weight on these is about four pounds each.

They also have those little non-skid feet or pads at the bottom to help them stay in place. And again, it's overall just one of those things you want to have in your car, your truck, or RV but hopefully you'll never need it.These to meet all DOT specifications and they are made in the USA. And that's going to do it for our look at the Peterson Triangle Warning Reflector kit.
