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.

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.

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.
