All decent motorcycle gear has reflective stripes, but they only work at night when light from various sources, especially other vehicles in traffic shine directly on them. The GlowRider vest from Adaptiv Technologies solves this problem with he addition of several electroluminescent panels.
Built directly into the GlowRider vest, these electroluminescent strips are highly visible at night and in low-light conditions. They are powered by 2 AA batteries and have two operation modes: constantly on and flashing for 70+ hours.
With a much wider viewing angle, electroluminescent panels are even better than LED's and come with a very small profile and no bulkiness.
The Adaptiv Technologies GlowRider vest is made from a special hi-viz mesh for unobstructed air flow and is lightweight while retaining full strength. With two side and one inner pocket, the GlowRider vest can also we worn when riding a bicycle at night, “walking the dog, hiking, trick or treating, boating, clubbing, playing the piano, or where ever else you feel the need to be more visible."
Great looks and visibility come at a price, though: the GlowRider retaisl for $129 (€99), obviously not the cheapest high-viz vest out there, but it's as cool as it gets. Tipped by BikerNet.
