Curious, anyone here implemented some kind of radio device to use when backing a Concrete Truck Agitator stop (red)/ reverse (green) signal for backing the truck while pouring up high?

found one, good idea OR not?

REMOTE CONTROL OPTION FOR TRAFFIC LIGHTS (MANUAL CHANGEOVER)

Click to enlarge image(s)

A radio remote control system which allows changeover from red to green and green to red by using two buttons on the remote control. One button switches the traffic light to red, the other button switches the traffic light to green. The traffic light will remain in whichever state you have selected until you change it.

This arrangement is ideal for situations where you need to stop traffic entering a loading area for example whilst loading operations are taking place.

You can specify whether you want the traffic light to start up with either the red light or green light on.


The radio receiver is fitted inside the traffic light housing and uses the same power supply (12-24Vdc) as the traffic light.

The handset comes complete with a 9 volt battery.

Range is typically 40 - 50 metres with line of sight. Additional antenna option available (see below) to increase the range up to 300 ~ 350 metres.

hey i have done a few poura high up not haveing anyone at the pump. and what i have done in the past was just used the horn to tell the mixer to stop backing. add water ect help when you deal with the same rm company often they start to learn what your honking about. but i think the light system is a good idea if the driver looks in the correct mirror. had a few back up into the pump because they are to busy looking out of the other mirror instead of the guy backing them up

since there hasnt been any new innovations with concrete pumps, maybe all you highly paid manufacturer engineers can come up with something, maybe a back up camera witha display on the remote...?

a back up camera on a pump truck?? back one truck in camera gets dirty now its useless.Howe big do you want your remote to be?? im sure an LED screen on our remotes would work so well after a week in the field. lets keep the solutions realistic here.
