    Default Seeing and being seen

    I am amazed that for all of the money spent on being safe and being seen that it is so seldom mentioned that you can instantly increase you visibility to cagers with this simple and relatively inexpensive add on to the back of your helmet.

    I'm not selling this but take a look and see what you think for yourself.

    On a ryde a week or so ago one of the bikers had this product on her helmet. Honestly, I was not impressed. Guess she might have had low battery but NOT very bright, hardly visible in the day light. The High mount LED on the RT is SOOO much brighter.

    I have the BrakeFree system on my helmet. It is VERY BRIGHT, IMO.

    My only complaint was the price (over $150) and the almost 2 month wait for delivery. At the time I bought it, it was manufacturer direct.

    I don't know if it is available through dealers yet.

    Lamonster indicated he was going to get them....but I have not seen or heard whether that has happened.

    7 oz is a lot of added weight to the back of the lid. May impact how long before fatigue.

    I bought one and am very happy with it although I wish I could see how it looks ? The 3 blink Ryker sling mods brake thing throws a code B100F I think about the can bus. I just use the small light until it activates and then they really POP!

    I have one I share between my helmet if riding alone or for my passenger helmet. Weight is not noticeable.
