I came to your light via a comet! A 1955 Comet Bicycle that is.  I have a collection of vintage bicycles, and recently added a 1955 Comet that I bought not for the bike, but for the headlight and generator that was on it.

I poliches and refurbished the generator and headlight and installed them on another bike, a 1979 Raleigh 3-speed.  Riding at night through the local country roads on many Sultry Summer Nights was just sublime.  The troubles and trials of the work day melted awayas the generator hummed in concert with the crickets and the wind.  However on these roads I was never completely alone.  Occasionally a car would come from behind a even though the bike has reflectors I could not help feeling invisible to a coffee drinking, cell phone chatting, radio listening, GPS checking, distracted motorist with a minivan full of kids watching SHREK on a DVD.

After a few rides I went to my local bike shop and bought one of your clip on flashing strobe lights.  I did not want anything attached permanently to the bike as I like the bike to have an authentic feel to it.  I vintage tail light is too dim to alert todays innattentive motorists to the presence of a slow moving vehicle ahead.

With your strobe light clipped to the tool bag on the bike I headed out at dusk with the lights flashing.  Even before dark approaching motorists slowed and gave me a wide berth.  There is something about the flashing that seems to get a response that a continuous output light does not.

Thanks for the great product…

Sincerely,

Well hello there light people. I am writing you a story about my clip on light.  I got my first clip light in New Orleans during jazz fest.  It was perfect for the night rides by the river and venue to venue. Now I don’t actually clip the light on to my bike, nor my helmet.  I find the best location for me is clipped on my halter top right between my cleavage.  Because of the fip around action of the light it clips on and aims straight where my torso is looking. I continued to use the light in San Francisco clipping in a variety of ways.  It made it through several festivals including Burning Man, then alas, my first light was lost when my backpack fell off my bike in Amsterdam.

Never fear back in New Orleans this year I picked another one up and am happy cleavage clipping and lighting my way again.

Thanks for the novel design which allows me to light my way…

Thanks so much,

I have been a member of the Wisconsin Polka Boosters since 1990.  I make signs out of plastic and PVC cause it’s easy to cut.  I use glitter glue because it shines at night and won’t wash off.

The problem was I couldn’t get any lite of the sign until I found your product… I would have used electric cord, I didn’t want electric cord for distance. This product is perfect.  It runs up the 200ft driveway and distance is perfect for advertising.

Thank you for this product.

My story of “how I used your safety light”, is not about me, but how the lite has served me. For 2 nites I have failed to turn the lite off.   Memory.  83 Years old.  How long (hours) will the battery power last!!?

This is my story about how I use “Safety Light-Flashing Strobe”…

I purchased this little light on 7/12/04… This is the first light I an getting for my 3 year olds first 12inch bike.  I wanted it to be really special so I bought her a new Disney Princess bike (with training wheels of course!) and I purchased several items to match including a helmet, knee and elbow pads, a little horn and this light.  This little flashing light was perfect because it matched her bike so well and most importantly was bright enough to see leaving me feeling comfortable that she would be seen if out in the evening, not to mention the fact that it’s purple; which happens to be her favorite color right now. So now that we have the whole package of riding gear, needless to say, the little one is happy AND SAFE!
