Today we're going to be taking a look at part number HM20101VA. This is the Hopkins Backup Alert, replacement 3156 Bulb with an audible alert. That's to add safety while in reverse. You can replace your tail light backup bulb with this warning light. As you put your vehicle in the reverse gear, anyone or anything who might be behind you will be alerted. This is going to send out a really consistent beeping sound.
The beeping sound can be clearly heard, again, when you move your vehicle to the reverse gear. That sound will vary depending on the vehicle that this is installed in. This is not a universal application, though it does fit in any vehicles, but if your vehicle's reversible to size 3156, then this product is going to work perfect for your application. I'm going to go ahead and hook it up to our external power source that way you can see how bright the bulb is as well as hear that audible beeping alert. Here at the housing, that's where the sound's going to come out. I'll get this connected and you'll be able to hear it.
Get all the wires on there. Okay, now turn it on. You can hear that consistent beeping as well as the bright light. It's really going to send out that consistent beeping sound alerting anybody that may be behind the vehicle when we move the vehicle into the reverse gear. That's going to do it for today's review of part number HM20101VA.
This is the Hopkins Backup Alert. .
Works as advertised; easy to install
Great little product. I liked it so much I ordered a second one.
Great product!
works like a champ, still going a year later
Works great! Everyone should have one of these.
It works fine. I have only one, but if you want a really loud backup beep, get two.
Cool safety feature for fun and work vehicles. This is the second one I've installed, and they have both worked great.
the little guys make a lot of noise for their size. etrailer got them to us
quick. Recamend them highly.
Works Great best product that I have bought on line that was the right thing and that works
Back up alarm works well
Loud enough to alert anyone or anything behind you. Super easy to change.
Thanks for your product. The back up alert is a Christmas gift and has not been put into the vehicle as of yet. The other one is a spare for my van which already has one in it. This product is the best of it's kind. If you really want safety, then you go with backup alert. Price is Right and the product is the best. Anyone can install it. It really is a life saver. Thanks guy's.
The product works great easy to install as well the price is right checked product with the same price is very high. The shipping was fast I did not have to wait very long I would recommend this company to everyone that I know and they are concerned with the customer which is nice to I can't tell you that it is nice to have a good company as this one.
awesome customer service. Bridget was very friendly and professional. She addressed my shipping concerns. (Side note, she sounded hot) Product was shipped in timely manner as expected. Arrived well packaged and on time. Installation was very simple and i have been using the product for about 4 days now. Works well and saved me a good bit of money and headache. I would order from them again with out hesitation.
It is not as loud as I expected that it would be. The sound alarm that attached directly to the outside of the light was louder but not very durable. This product has been durable as it is part of the bulb but it could be louder.
It could be louder. Although it is not as loud as the one in my Ford van, anything is better than nothing. Thanks for the quick shipping and overall service.
Customer service was great and the product fit perfect as descibed online. I would definitely use your company again and again infact i'll purchasing another hitch for my other work van. I appreciate you following up a year later. If you have any type of sticker, i would not hesitate to put it on the hitch or any product to advertise for you because when your company does good then you can continue to support your customes with great service and products
I love this product. This is the second one I have had in over 30 years. The only problem was that the soldering nipple was to high and I had to file it down to the same height as the 1156. Also, I had to file some of my lens hole down so the alarm part would go in. These miner adjustment would be a great help. I do plan on ordering another one in the near future.
this like and backup signal was perfect for my camper. it is a nice beep sound and does warn others you are backing up without being to obnoxious. Its a great product and ETRAILER was easy to order from. I highly recommend ETRAILER for all your transportation needs.

GOOD PHOTOS AND DESCRIPTIONS

Hopkins Backup AlertI've had it in my truck for 6 months now and it works great.
It simply replaces one of the backup bulbs in your tailights.
This product is a cost effective way to provide safety warnings during construction activity. We priced other items and they were way more expensive and required a mechanic to install. In a couple of minutes we installed this item and it works perfectly. Etrailer.com has a quick and easy website and great service!
Bulb with an audible alert installed on my 2009 Ford Ranger.
