Got one of these, a strip of LED's in rubber, stick to the back of the helmet, and you replace one of your rear stop/tail bulbs with an LED replacement with a radio transmitter in it.

it seems to work really well at night, not so good in daylight. has hazard function as well.

the rubber is quite thick and it needs a little help sticking to the profile of the rear of the helmet ( at the moment I've left it with some tape holding it down for a day or so).

Cheers Mark.

Sounds like a good idea as long as you stay away from the BBC and the Telecom Tower.

You might get arrested for flashing :P

You can't use these things with the K3 for obvious reasons :wink:

You can ! their is a version which has the transmiter you wire in to the lrear light circuit, so no bulb replacement. I almost got one of these instead of the bulb type.

Cheers Mark.

When I asked about them in HG, they said that they weren't available for bikes with LED rear lights...

I stand corrected :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy:
