Anybody know anything about strobes?

I'm trying to figure out some way to put lights on the passenger visor mirror for my wife, and I found some little lights that looked to fit the bill perfectly. They are about 3 inches long, and flattened on one side for sticky tape. Unfortunately, my hope that the strobe function (flashing on and off) was optional doesn't seem to be true. Is it possible to leave out the strobe box and just run them as lights? Will they overheat or burn out too quick? Are they running at some odd voltage?

Yeah just let her use it as a strobe light. Then you can party at night!

If they are true strobes, you cannot run them as regular lights as they require a lot of power to charge and then set off the quick flash. If they are just regular (halogen or incandescent) lights with a flasher, you should be able to disable/bypass the flash unit and have them on constant.
