inView Helmet Brake and Signal Light (Clear)

I bought one of these last July. I find that it makes me extremely noticeable, which is the primary purpose. I only have two issues with it:1. The most important being that the advertised "engine braking notification", which is supposed to activate the brake light upon deceleration, even if you haven't applied the brakes, still isn't available. Once that is added, I would rate this as 5 stars.2. My helmet has a ridge running down the center of the back. This makes it impossible for the skirt on the light to completely contact the helmet, and it requires a second attachment strip so that the light is held to the helmet from two sides instead of just in the center. This is not a big deal and really only affects the way it looks, and only on close inspection. It's not noticeable to the casual observer, even from a close distance. A simple fix would be for the skirt to be just slightly longer. This issue may be unique to my helmet, as most helmets don't have a ridge down the back.All in all, I strongly recommend this device.

The media could not be loaded.  Excellent packaging and high quality workmanship is evident throughout. Once you figure out where you want to mount the transceiver on the bike and the appropriate wires, installation is pretty straightforward. I was particularly impressed that the unit worked straight out of the box, and although I thought the metric screws for the helmet unit was fine, sending the phillip head screws was a clear indication of the company's outstanding customer support. I installed the unit in December 2018 and other than having to replace the batteries in the helmet unit, it has worked flawlessly. Key features worth mentioning are: the self diagnosis at startup let's the rider know that the unit is functioning correctly; in the unlikely event that the bike goes down in an accident, the automatic emergency flashing feature is great (to see this work, put the helmet on its side); Incorrect installation of the unit on the helmet (installed upside down) results in the unit continually flashing when powered; the added weight of the helmet unit is not noticeable. Things that need to be improved: The seal around the helmet unit needs to be a little longer to account for the curve of the helmet. Its current length does not make a proper water tight seal between the helmet and unit; Battery life is a little short. Not sure if this is due to the cold temperature (I ride year round), or the power draw (I use Energizer lithium batteries). This is an issue because changing the batteries does require removing the backing and those screws are small! Bottom line, this product still rates 5 stars because it is innovative, a breeze to install and really works, as evident by the distance cars now stop behind me when I'm waiting at a light. It's especially good at night and in reduced visibility. InView is well worth the price, and I encourage all riders that really care about their safety to check this item out. It's even better than 3M reflective tape.

Purchased for a friend cant wait to see how it looks on the helmet. Should stop cars from stopping to close.
