November 4, 20223 yr It might even get driver's eyes off their phones and back onto the road. For visible phone pests have you tried an air horn? I had a hand bulb type, cheap as chips, and supper would be dished up when I signalled from a mile away.
November 4, 20223 yr Author For visible phone pests have you tried an air horn? I had a hand bulb type, cheap as chips, and supper would be dished up when I signalled from a mile away. I've got a Hornit 120bd, and it's got me out of trouble many a time. Also beeping loudly at drivers reduces the feeling of powerlessness when they've passed too close etc. I suffer in silence no longer - I use it to administer driver Cognitive Behavioural Therapy. Otherwise they dish out their odious behaviour and drive on, without a second thought. I've finished splicing in Y junctions, adding cables and soldering in the new dual switch, adding to the other switch. I can now toggle between modes on any of those three 1800LM lights. For night cycling, most of the time I might keep the right front headlight dipped, the left bright and flashing. The red rear 1800LM headlight will be set to flashing all the time, day and night. If there are power cuts, I'll cycle from room to room. What I need is a cellphone jamming device! Effective "up to 70M".

November 4, 20223 yr Author For visible phone pests have you tried an air horn? I had a hand bulb type, cheap as chips, and supper would be dished up when I signalled from a mile away. I was wondering if simply beeping my Hornit 120db loudly every few seconds, would be effective in waking up stupid dozy inattentive dangerous drivers texting and swiping away at their phones. I use rechargeables.

November 4, 20223 yr Author I never had any issues with any one, tbh I don't give a ***k about motorists If I want to be visible. We have to put up with their terrible driving and disconcern for other road users. These cops ignored my one flashing bright 1800LM headlight last week, but they were probably too busy on their way to bust some perps, to stop and shake me down for pumpkins in my bike trailer. I'm hoping two flashing 1800LM headlights will also be ignored by piggy fuzz five ohs. https://vimeo.com/manage/videos/767481104 (Vimeo because it preserves what little quality there is, from my rubbish action camera footage)
