I'm trying to get prices by the case for Orion paper bonnet 5 and 10 minutes flares, with and without handles. The case size is a gross for the 5 minute flares, 1/2 gross for the other.

I can't find anywhere online to price and order them.

Eta: purchased

As I understand it, road flares are getting harder to come by in large numbers since you can make meth with them.

I'm beginning to think that one can make meth out of anything.

Seriously? Is there anything that people won't smoke, shoot up, or ingest?

Here ya go.  We use these to light backfires and such, but basically they are just very hot burning road flares.

The hell?

These Meth Macgyvers are crafty as fuck.  What can't they make meth out of?


I have some flares in my trunk......can I flip them for some scrilla?

I ended up buying them from Mallory Co. As it turns out, a case is two hazmat fees, so I bought 60 instead of 72.

Also, they're ordering a case of the 10 minute flares, which will be another hazmat fee, but I'll get a case of what I wanted.

The striker on the flare contains a much larger amount of phosphorus than matches.
The red burning portion is probably nothing more than strontium salt and a perchlorate, saw dust, wax etc.

Is there anything you can't make meth out of ? jeez cough medicine now flares , Meth has got to be really good for you with shit like that in it. WTF

THIS.  Truckers are required to carry road flares and trucking supply companies sell them by the case to small trucking companies.  As far as meth heads using flares to make their dope, I wonder what they would have thought about the loads of the chemical powder used to make the flares I used to haul.  I imagine the meth heads would have gone nuts over 40,000 pounds of that stuff.

What makes you think that truckers are required to carry road flares?

We went from road flares to reflective triangles years ago, we used to have to carry flares, but too many roadside fires popped. So now its the plastic triangles. The more you know...

Yeah, I don't know what the deal is. I do have a case of 72 10 minute flares with the paper, instead of plastic, cap.

Hmm, things may have changed in the last few months. The 8-12 packs via amazon prime have completely disappeared from amazon. I did find a case of 72 10 minute flares for $129, plus $45 shipped. Obviously charging for hazmat.
