    Our friends at SMiDSY have been busy again with a new super low cost motorcycle headlight modulator.

    xx Visual Turn Signal Reminder
    January 11, 2012, 08:34:31 AM by Fluke
    In store today we have the new SMiDSY Visual Turn Signal Reminder.



    The SMiDSY TSR-2 Visual Turn Signal Reminder is mounted in the cockpit area of your bike and contains an amazingly bright green LED that is visible even in direct sunlight.  In addition, the LED is modulated (a flicker effect) that you will notice even out of the corner of your eye.  As light levels drop towards dusk, so does the output level of the LED.  Once it is dark, the LED will continue to flash at a dim level, but without the modulation, so as not to be distracting when riding at night.

    xx Philips X-treme Vision Plus 100% Headlight Bulbs now in store.
    October 11, 2011, 05:41:20 PM by Fluke
    Philips have just released the latest in H4 headlight upgrade bulbs: the Philips X-treme Vision +100%. It gives up to 100% more light than standard halogen headlight bulbs. They will work for both dipped and main headlights.

    The lamps, which are fully road legal and suitable for use in plastic lenses, are great for those that spend considerable time driving at night, especially in country areas. They are good for bikes with single front lamps, as the overall light increase gives similar illumination to a pair or ordinary headlights. The brighter, whiter light output also makes your vehicle more visible to pedestrians and other road users.

    The performance gain is achieved through a new unique filament design, optimised geometry, a quartz burner and high pressure gas filling to deliver maximum light output and longer life expectancy. The end result is safer night time driving with greater visible distance.

    These bulbs are the very best on the market in our opinion, even surpassing the legendary Osram Nightbreaker Plus

    They are available now in our Store currently in the popular H4 format (low and high beam in single bulb)

    H7 single filament bulbs to follow soon

    Regards

    xx BikeVis Bullets Version 2
    September 02, 2011, 09:57:45 AM by Fluke
    We are pleased to announce that all of our popular BikeVis Bullet running lights now being shipped from this website have been up rated. The newer Bullets will also filter down to our dealers over the next few weeks.

    Though we have always been happy with our little Bullet lights we wanted more power, and after a year of struggling to find a suitable LED chip we have managed to cram more light into the same tiny package. The design remains unchanged, keeping the same tough epoxy face of the newer Bullets from this year.


    On a light meter we measured over twice the light, but to the eye they look many times brighter. The power consumption is up to 1 Watt per Bullet, but this is still a tiny load even for the smallest motorcycle out there!

    Photo comparing old with new, totally overwhelming the camera...   (photos have not been edited at all)




    Specs:

    Supply Voltage: 12-14.5vDC
    Operating Current: 72mA per Bullet or 0.072 Amps @14.5vDC
    Power Rating:  1 Watt per Bullet
    Life Expectancy: >50,000Hrs


    Regards
