Looking at Helmet Lights!
« on: September 13, 2015, 06:18:48 PM »
Looking at the helmet lights that are available (Lumenflex.com and others).
Any Florida riders have any experience with the legality?
I like the lights, and might put some (at least on my nighttime helmet); as long as I am not attracting a ticket or worse...

I know there are color restrictions and aiming restrictions in Florida for lights on the bike. I haven't found a source as to whether or not there are restrictions on helmet lights (Colors, brightness, direction of illumination)...

Helmet is the highest point visually; a light there would be seen more easily (I think)...

This should work without issue:

I like the glowing eyes but they hide behind my full face.

Here was mine. I switched it to green. I believe green has no issues with the law. People give me props with it on. And I have had no problem with police. I believe they like it, because we can be seen. I just scotched taped EL wire to the helmet, and used the 10lbs scotch fasteners to attach the battery pack to the helmet. It was cheap on ebay. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U2oYt0GUI-A. http://www.ebay.com/itm/like/301574331735?ul_noapp=true&chn=ps&lpid=82

I know a guy named Rudolph who works for a guy named Santa up north, he'll fix you right up on some lights.
