Good for night riding visibility, but not my style.

I've always wondered how much extra wind noise those generate.

wouldn't the light point to the back of the helmet?  I shouldn't think it'd produce much noise if any as it should be mostly behind the crest of the dome.

Anyone ever seen in IRL?  I wonder if it is bright enough so cagers can see it during the day. mo:t:

Functional maybe but sure ruins a nice helmet.

I like the BSG reference, but the wind-powered thing seems gimicky. There is no way I'm taping or glueing ANYTHING to my Schuberth.

So you definitely won't be "rearended" by a deer, raccoon or small child while wearing this [cheeky]

Thats cheap! I think they were selling them for like $30.00, I think it would be cool if you ride alot at night I dont think you can see the  LEDS during the day time. I might get one just to see how it works.
