the glare off the inside of the face shield would be irritating. i'd rather have a 3rd brake light on the back of the helmet

Is that from your private collection Deej?
Hey sup, I believe it takes a battery like the flat one that go into a laser pointer for cats. Just might get one for fun. The local mx track does Saturday night supercross under the lights anyway if it's distracting on the street. Wonder if there's a way you can hook up a strobe light instead? Hmm?

I want some. It said there is no glare (unless tinted creates a halo) and there battery power. Only takes 5-10 to install.
