Anyone has seen the "down low glow" lights?

Wow- that's a GREAT invention! If commuting through the dark winter works out for me, that's a definite on my "list" to get for next winter. Wow!!!
Thanks for sharing that- I love the idea. I have one question, tho. Some cities ban that kind of lighting under cars/motorcycles. Would bikes have the same restriction do you think? (guess I'll be checking my city codes before I lay down the cash...)

Look at the way your state and community define the term "vehicle," and how the lighting laws apply to "vehicles." For example, here in Arkansas, bikes aren't "vehicles" by definition (since the statutes are written for "motor traffic"), and there is a separate section of the state Code which specifically applies to lights on bicycles. The light color restrictions, etc. all appear in another section of the code for motor vehicles.

Colors to beware of are blue (restricted to cop cars), and sometimes red (cop cars, fire trucks, and other emergency vehicles). There are a few exceptions for vehicles that need extra identification and caution when passing, and it's a good argument that this category should include bikes, should they try to apply the vehicular design standards to us.

I've got one of the "Envy Green" Down Low Glow sets on order... shipped on 11/28, FedEx was supposed to deliver it yesterday, but still no light yet. Will try to get & post some pictures when it gets here and I get it rigged up.

I've really been thinking about one of these.

That, and the Hokey Spokes.
