What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · April 26, 2026
This strobe light plugs directly into a compatible Silent Call weather radio and flashes visibly when the radio receives an emergency weather alert signal. It's designed for people who are deaf or hard of hearing and might not hear an audible alarm during a tornado warning, severe thunderstorm, or other weather emergency. You get the strobe unit itself, but it requires a compatible weather radio (the WX-67 model) to function — it does not work as a standalone alerting device. If you plan to connect multiple alerting accessories to the same weather radio at once, you'll also need the Silent Call DC-01 Dual Connector, sold separately.
