Essentially, it flashes LED's, or your signal, or brake lights, in two different patterns, as your bike decelerates, automatically, to wake up cage drivers behind you. This device is different than existing brake modulators, in that it uses a decelerometer, to automatically sense decreases in speed: when you close the throttle, downshift, or maybe just coast up a hill. It has two patterns, one to indicate a mild deceleration, and another to signal a faster deceleration. There are different options: built-in LED's (under development), wired into existing brake lights, or wired into existing turn signal lights.
The Motorcycle Safety Foundation recommends/teaches that we should flash our brakes when we slow down, to alert vehicles behind us. How many of us remember to do this?...
This device is different than existing brake modulators, because it works automatically; with brake flashers, you must engage the brake before the unit flashes your lights, so during decelerations caused by pulling the clutch, coasting, shifting, etc., drivers behind you have no warning unless they see you decelerating.
Just thought I'd share, as it could help protect you, and your passenger, when riding. I am not affiliated with this company in any way, other than I am a backer. Cheers!
), and I install it, I will report back here as to what I think of it (will have my son drive behind me to film it in action?...). Also need to decide whether to connect it to the existing brake lights, or wire it into the rear turn signals -- both have their advantages.
