Title: Poor quality, not a good alternative to regular flares
Review: The CommuteMate Flameless Flare is not good replacement for regular flares. If you plan to go somewhere that might require a flare for emergency use, do not rely on the CommuteMate. It simply doesn't get bright enough to use in emergency situations. The flare is made of shiny plastic. Headlights could easily reflect off of the plastic and prevent people from noticing the blinking red light.The flare itself seems feeble and I can imagine it breaking somewhat easily. It's not rugged. I also tried taking the batteries out after my initial test and the second battery become stuck inside. I tried hitting it to get the battery out to no avail. I was worried that if I hit it too hard, it would break, so I just put the second battery back in.The idea of a flare that runs on batteries and can last up to 500 hours sounds attractive, but in this case it's not useful.
