I saw a guy a couple years ago with what was apparently a wireless brake light on the back of his helmet. It was like a center high-mounted brake light on a car. It sure caught your attention. Anyone ever seen one, or know who makes or sells them?

That DOES look pretty cool...

Thanks, Vinny,
I did a search for Riderlite, and found it at J.C. Whitney, and a couple other places for half the price of the one on e-bay.

I use this one from BRAKE FLASHER

I Googled it, well... Froogle, actually, and see it for about $25. The guy on ebay is making some huge profits!

Not a brake lite but I read about a wind power (I think) led helmet lite- seems like it was from HJC- maybe on Webbike World but I could not find it again.

I've seen the HJC wind powered model for sale a few places. They run about $30... Downsides to me are that they're pretty big, and I could imagine them inceasing wind noise.

Troy Lee also has a battery operated one that looks a lot like the HJC. If I was going to get one, I'd go for the battery operated one. The biggest time I'm worried about rear visibility is when I'm stopped - no wind to make the pretty light flash...
