Rear helmet lights

Fru T Bunn

Hi,

Can anyone recommend a red led helmet light? Small flashing led type would be great.

Many thanks,
Fru

Busch and Muller Topfire helmet lights, £15. Never used them but look like they'll do the job.

Or there's the BLT Lid

I love the Vistalite Eclipse - you can clip them to your helmet, belt, messenger bag, uderseat pouch and so on. Good bits of kit.

I use a couple of the Photon Backupz (sic) in my rear vents. cheap and bright.

I have the Topfires - they look better in the catalogue! The individual LEDs are held on with little patches of double-sided tape. The tape sticks to the helmet without hassle but the rubber LED housings won't stick to the tape too well. I'd normally come back from a spin with a couple of the LEDs having come unstuck.

As another poster has suggested, I now use a couple of Backupz in the rear vents

Tesoc's - £4.00 each, red or white.

I fixed a red one to the back of my helmet on "pulse" mode and it seems to work very well
