THIS IS THE WIND SPEECH! Magnetic bases are available on MOST of our
toplights. Fred Stock Electronics and www.TaxiCabElectronics.com, www.TaxiSource.com and
our other websites, employees and source companies, collectively "We" and "Us"
herein, disclaim any and all damage or loss to your company and its equipment
due to use of magnetic based toplights, advertising carriers, antennas or other
equipment. WE CAUTION YOU that magnetic lights can slide and slip when set on a
portion of the roof which is not perfectly flat, or when placed with a sideways
motion. They can slip due to wind "pressure" on them, again causing scratches.
This can scratch the finish of your vehicle. WE CAUTION YOU that they can be blown off the top of
your vehicle. Do the math! If you are traveling 58 MPH and your
vehicle is passed by a truck going the other way at 74 MPH you can have a 132
MPH wind gust to deal with. And the rooster tail wind at the back hits you a
second time! Your toplight - especially a large format light with a lot of
"face" - can be destroyed in a fraction of a second when it hits the
asphalt at 50 MPH. It can cause serious damage and/or injury in the same
scenario. We recommend using the screwbase lights, permanently
attached to your vehicle whenever possible. (Another of our favorite alternatives is, if you insist upon Magnetic Bases, buy several copies of your toplight so you have spares! Works for
me!!) Consider a Screw-based sign! They cost less too! We
hereby disclaim any responsibility for your use of these products. Our
experience had taught us that these magnetic lights are often "pitched" onto the
roof, or slid off when removing them. The air currents to which they are
subjected can and do slide them around, and though we coat them with Mylar tape,
the mere presence of dust in the air can cause scratching when they move about.
We do not warrant these devices in any way for damage to your vehicle. By
purchasing and using these magnetic bases from Fred Stock Electronics and its
websites, you release Us from any and all claims for damage, injury or death. We also have a nice note from K. Bazin
in Moncton, New Brunswick in Canada who qualifies this paragraph as
follows: "I own a couple of cabs ... and have used magnets for years and
have never lost a roof sign. The signs are large and I use 4 of the 3"x3"
square magnets which I have tested... at 150 mph on an 03 Crown Vic
Interceptor. There was no movement of the sign whatsoever, but I have seen
guys use the 2.5" round magnets and lose signs at 70 MPH." Thanks KB! ( http://www.aircab.nb.ca ) We use powerful 3" Round magnets
(or multiple grip channel magnets in some models.) Both exponentially more sturdy than the 2.5' variety and have lost very few of
these to the gusts. But some have gone! And I still stand by my cautions! You decide! Our
disclaimers must stand, and your use of these items will always be at your
sole risk. fhs
