Common mistakes when using the V16 beacon and how to avoid them
The connected V16 beacon is an essential element for road safety, especially since it has become the official device for signaling breakdowns and roadside emergencies. However, improper use can compromise that safety. Below, we'll explain the most common mistakes when using the V16 beacon and how to avoid them, especially if you have a Hero Driver LED IoT, one of the few on the market with guaranteed connectivity until 2040 📡.
1. Not activating it correctly
Many people forget how to activate the beacon in emergency situations. In times of stress, every second counts. The Hero Driver LED IoT is designed to be activated with a simple gesture, but it's essential to familiarize yourself with it before you need it.
✅ Tip: Test the device at home following the instructions. This way, in case of an emergency, you'll be ready to activate it without delay.
2. Placing it in the wrong place
Some drivers place the beacon inside the vehicle or at an inappropriate distance. This reduces its visibility and, therefore, its usefulness.
✅ Tip: The V16 Hero Driver LED IoT beacon should be placed on the vehicle's roof as soon as it is safe to do so. Thanks to its strong magnet, it remains firmly attached even in windy conditions 🌬️.
3. Not checking the battery
Although the Hero Driver LED IoT already includes an alkaline battery with 60 minutes of battery life, leaving it unchecked for years can lead to failure at the most inopportune moment.
✅ Tip: Check its operating status at least once a year. Thanks to its low power consumption, the battery usually stays in good condition for a long time, but it never hurts to check it 🔋.
4. Store it in an inaccessible place
In many cases, drivers store the beacon in the rear of the vehicle or under objects, making it difficult to access in an emergency.
✅ Tip: Store your Hero Driver LED IoT in the glove compartment or somewhere easily accessible from the driver's seat. Remember, you can turn it on without leaving the car, protecting yourself from unnecessary risks 🚗💨.
