• Bike Direction Lamp with Eight-Tune Horn

The unique battery-free Pedalite pedal lights for bicycles have been designed to “make cyclists more visible to motorists day and night, from a distance of up to 1km away and from any angle, including the side”.

As soon as you start pedalling the Pedalite pedals uniquely harvest and store a small amount of energy so the lights continue to flash when the cyclist is freewheeling or has stopped at a road junction.

Here are two video clips to give you a better idea of the Pedalite:

Features:

• A set of two 360° visibility bicycle pedals.
• Orange, red and white lights flash from the front back and sides of the pedals.
• The lights are battery-free, powered only by kinetic energy as you cycle.
• The Pedalites store a small charge as you cycle so the lights continue to flash for up to 5 minutes when you have stopped pedalling.
• The lights are visible from 1km away.
• The Pedalites themselves are durable and non-slip.
• Each Pedalite has 2 rows of supergrip studs for safe pedalling.
• The Pedalites screw-in in replacement of your bike’s existing pedals.
• Requires a spanner and screwdriver for application (not included).
• Suitable for ages 8 years+ (an adult must attach the Pedalites to the bike).
• Size: 12 x 9.5 x 3cm (per pedal).

The Pedalite pedals are available from Unusual Gifts & Gadgets for $79.99, or from I Want One Of Those for £34.99 (about $68 USD).

More info and retailers can also be found on the official Pedalite website.

It’s not the first time we’ve covered spoke LED lights here at GeekAlerts, there’s been one from Blujay and another one from The Hokey Spokes Company. But the above Pac-Man version is without a doubt the coolest pattern we’ve seen so far.

It’s been created with the SpokePOV, an easy-to-make electronic kit toy containing all the parts necessary to build your own bicycle light show.

• Can be used with road, mountain or BMX wheels!
• 30 LEDs on each side (22 for BMX) x 256 radial pixels
• Runs on 2-3 AA batteries for 10 hours or more, assuming 3000mAh alkalines and 50% image coverage.
• Can run on rechargable NiMH AA’s
• Comes with high-brightness red LEDs, but can be upgraded with green, blue, amber, etc.
• Automatically shuts off after 3 minutes
• wxPython based software runs on any Linux or Windows PC with a parallel port
• Design is all through-hole parts, perfect for a first time kit builder.
• With one spoke, total persistence at 15mph. Two spokes, 10mph. Three spokes, 7mph. (Assuming a mountain bike wheel). Looks cool even if not completely persistant.

• Playa-tested!

A complete Triple SpokePOV Kit + Dongle + 2 Magnets costs $99.

Seen above is the Hokey Spokes bicycle safety light that consists of transparent blades that attach to your bike’s spoke wheels. Kind of like the Bike Spoke LED Message.
