Abstract
A visor-mountable emergency light system includes a housing of a size and shape to be mountable to and carried by a vehicle sunvisor. One or two portions of the housing have a conformation receptive of a strobotron exposed for directing light outwardly away from the housing. Another portion of the housing is conformed to define a cavity within which is located a firing unit mounted and connected to cyclically ignite the strobotron. The strobotron includes a light-transmissive lens that has a central area which transmits light of one or more specific colors and a peripheral area which transmits at least primarily uncolored light.
