bbPie Electronics is located in Wakefield, MI in Michigan's Upper Peninsula. Our location and development of the product is background for the name Lake Gogebic Tip-U.P. Lite.
We here at bbPieElectronics wanted to design a tip-up light that covered all the bases a fisherman would be looking for. We believe we have done just that. My own personal experiences from years on the ice prompted many of the features.
First and foremost, the function of a tip-up light is to indicate a strike in low light conditions. The flashing display is a real eye catcher. The flashing light is not confused with taillights, headlights, and lights from the shoreline at a distance. The display presently comes in three colors; red, yellow, and green so you and your fishing partners can differentiate your "flags" from others.
When you are tending a "flag," you don't want to worry about whether your light will be ready for another use when you're done landing your catch. For this reason we designed a long "burn-time" into the Lake Gogebic Tip U.P. Lite. It was tested in a chest freezer on top of a package of walleyes, resulting in a burn time of 9 days straight. With a flashing display the light is on half the time which equates to twice the battery life of other steady burn lights. Remember, you can replace the battery, if you should need to.
Have you ever had a tip-up run over? I have, and am probably not the only one. The flashing light assembly is reflective to help in protecting your equipment from night traffic on the ice. Conscientious drivers may see a fisherman or group of fishermen and realize they may have equipment nearby and want to steer clear-we can now help them!
The small lightweight battery pack will lie at the base of your tip-up flag. Just insert the plug from the light assembly cable into the jack, and you're ready for action. When you are ready to pick-up, disconnect and store the battery pack in your ice fishing tackle box or the pocket of your favorite ice-fishing jacket. You'll be ready for your next outing. The light assembly is designed to stay on your tip-up flag arm. Fold up your tip-up as usual and place in your bucket or wherever you store your tip-ups.
Don't forget to use your Lake Gogebic Tip-U.P. Lite for night trail markers. The reflective case can be shined on with a flashlight or power them up for a flashing indicator to get safely from point A to point B in the dark. Hunters find them very useful during game tracking or for marking stands.
Hand crafted in the U.S.A., the Lake Gogebic Tip-U.P. Lite has quality built throughout the entire assembly. You may pay a couple dollars more, but your return in multiple usage, reliability, and battery life alone will make up the difference. Try it, we think you'll be pleasantly satisfied. We guarantee against manufacturer defects for life.
Enjoy yourself and good fishin'!
