"Backwards" bike light - 20X visibility for riders

Maker Faire Bay Area 2019

May 17th-19th

Exhibit Bicycles

It turns out that we've been making bike lights wrong - forever. I wanted to change that.

I'll be showcasing a new design that illuminates the rider from the back, increasing visibility by 20x. I'll also teach you how to make your own!

I am a marketing guy who likes to tinker on the side. I want to inspire non-engineers about how you can make things with everyday products & how your failures add up to cool projects. I didn't start making things till my 1st maker fair 4 years ago.
