Those look pretty cool only one problem for me. They aren't warranted against water damage. So I'd end up killing it my first time riding. Guess I'll have to stick w/ the old school way of lighting my flag.

The problem is on the atv model. it takes 2 double A batteries and the battery life is about 14 hours so you would need to get the buggy model so you could wire it to your battery and that one is $89.99. Do a search on ebay for neon wires and you can buy wires and glue it or wire tie it to a bike antenna and it will probably do the same thing. Heck, you could probably even feed it through a clear tube with the bike antenna and that would work even better.

It looks really cool. But like QT said what happens after it goes in the water? Anyone have any ideas? |

14 hours off of 2 AA batteries?
I don't think that's gonna put out a lot of light.

Do like my wife does... She zip ties those triple strand christmas lights around the racks, and then plugs them into a small inverter in the 12v outlet.... You can miss her with those things on. Rode 'em out at mud, sweat & gears and the water didn't bother them...

I bought some of thin neon lights at Discount and taped them to to my flag pole. I then wired to to my battery through a switch. They worked great and could be seen a long way off. I had a blue one on my bike and a green one my wifes bike for the Rabbit Run, that way we could see where each other was at. I had mine broke by the end of the night because the pole didn't flex enough going under low trees.
