As I noted above, I chose an expensive blowup-proof Sure Power electronic flasher to insure it will stay working - it is rated for a cycle life of millions of flashes perhaps ten million. It is DOT approved.
My sources say that Sure Power flashers do indeed meet OEM and SAE strict quality control. However when you go to their website nothing mentions about DOT approval. All it say is OEM and SAE
They may be made like meeting specs meant for military application: heavy duty,hermetic type safe from environmental effects that are suited for off-road use and harsh environment.
The website does say it is meant for off-road.
SAE or OEM do their own testing but DOT make sure that equipment meets safety standard for highway and surface road driving.
Sounds like a case of "what's good for the goose is NOT good for the gander".
