thoughts? concerns? is there anything better for turning signals i could get for my electric assist bicycle?
i was using a home made blinker that i made with a project box, a couple of 555 timers and transistors and a 3 way switch on my handlebar but that got stolen when they failed to take my whole bike, which i now fold up and take with me into businesses and work.

video makes it look like shit, also low lumens. this is just window dressing. get a man's light, like:

i am not looking for a headlight, i already got a headlamp for night time use, i am specifically looking for turning signal indicators.
although i do want to get a better headlamp that i could stick to my helmet and possibly could be USB rechargeable as opposed to three AAA cells.
Why do people put so much emphasis on side lights? Does it really help with anything? Anytime you come across traffic perpendicularly, it's either they yield to you or you yield to them. By the time anyone really sees the side lights, it's too late and collision is imminent.

I feel like you'd be better served by just getting some retroreflective tape and using it to draw arrows on the back of your gloves.

This or that 100% bullshit gimmick "blinker glove" crap that made its way here somewhere during summer.
How late in the night you ride and on what kind of streets? Maybe just stay away of the unlit ones with fast traffic?
Light looks weak and is extremely gimmicky. Not made for serious cyclists. More made for the I'm going to go ride on the sidewalk for 3 miles kind of light.
>bluetooth with app capability
For a fucking bike light? This is such a dumb fucking gimmick. Hipster will love it though.

I feel like it could be distracting enough to increase your chances of being hit.
