Spooklight Accelerometer Technology Helps Cyclists Stay Safe

While reflectors on the back of your bike may help drivers notice you on the side of the road at night, they do very little to alert drivers when you tap on the break. Now with the Spooklight LED Bike light your reflectors can a lot more than just offer passive protection.

Spooklight works by combining a wireless handlebar touchpad with an accelerometer. When a users taps on a break or slows down, the break light automatically turns on to alert drivers of their sudden loss of speed.

The light also uses super bright LEDs that are easy to see and the system runs on a rechargeable lithium polymer. That battery can last up to 60 hours on a single charge and can be recharged via USB. Heck you can even charge your devices while you ride your bike.

The Spooklight is relatively cheap at $88, at least when compared to the safety it can provide.
