57% more visible than front/rear light combos
Forget front and rear lights and use Arclight Pedals instead. These pedals by Redshift Sports have slots for LED lights that provide 360º of visibility and better lighting than a front/back light configuration does.
Just as you would attract attention by waving your hands so would the movement of these pedal lights as the user pedals. According to the company, a study at Clemson University and others shows that this movement “increases visibility by up to 57% compared to standard front/rear lights”.
Pros
Cons
Automatic LEDs
On each pedal are two slots for the LED lights, which are secured magnetically. The dual-color LED lights change color depending on orientation so it's alway white when it is in the forward position and red when in the rear position.
The lights turn on automatically when the user starts riding and turns off automatically when not in use. The battery lasts about 36 hours on Eco Flash mode, 11 hours on Flash mode and 3 hours on Steady mode. It takes 2 hours to fully charge the battery from empty.
