Compared to a typical automobile, motorcycle stop lamps are simply too small to
attract immediate attention. This is especially true during daytime, when the
bright sunlight can wash out the red brake light.
tailBlazer overcomes this by
rapidly flashing the taillights the instant you apply the brakes. The flash rate
then slows down to a steady ON - this cycle lasts about 4 seconds. This flash
pattern is called a Deceleration Warning.
Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF) suggests that you pump your brakes at each
stop. tailBlazer does it
automatically, and by flashing the bulb filament at maximum brightness.
Application Note!
Do not use this version if your bike has:
■ BMW CAN-bus/ZFE system
■ 'Bulb Check' circuit
■ Cruise control with residual brake voltage Please use the 20W-D 2Pakversion for above.
WHAT DO THEY SEE?
As soon as you tap your brakes, drivers behind you will see a rapid flash of the
brake lights. This sudden flashing invokes immediate attention.
WHAT WILL THEY THINK?
tailBlazer uses a flash pattern
which decays exponentially - a well-recognized deceleration warning. The
attention to the initial flashing now changes to a clear recognition that you're
beginning to slow down!
Simply flashing brake lights or flashing them on & off will get the attention of
drivers behind you, but it doesn't invoke anything else. Every split second of
delay in their reaction reduces your safety margin.
This 2-Pak of tailBlazer SELF
MODULATING HALOGEN bulbs comes with dual contact base. Both units have matched
frequency for synchronized flash pattern.
