    You need to make business cards for your RUclips channel for when people ask what you're doing.
    also I'm glad the shoe ones failed because as a truck driver, I highly recommend against the shoe lights, because they're blending in with the road because we have such a high vantage point. The chest one with the tail light is probably the best one. I have a headlamp that has a red tail light on it too and people can distinguish where I'm at without even having to wear high-visibility vest.

    • @rodh1404
      @rodh1404 4 года назад +2

      The batteries are probably the weak point of several of these products. And rechargeable batteries in particular can be a concern because they degrade over time. The other Achilles heel of products like these is how they stand up to rain. If they can't handle that, they won't be any use at the time you may need them most. Would have really liked to have seen them tested for waterproofing.

    Epileptic here! Thank u sooo sooo much for the flashing light warning. U wouldn’t believe how many videos have horrible flashing lights with no warning whatsoever, and at least ur video is about lights so it’s kinda like, what would u expect. But in most occasions, flashing lights come on without warning & it can be very dangerous for someone like me, so at least with a warning if I wanna take the chance I can make sure I’m sitting on a couch or somewhere safe, or if it’s not worth the chance I can just not watch it. I’m not one of those people who want a trigger warning for every little thing, but you’d think ppl would know that a trigger warning is warranted when it can cause severe medical injury to a viewer. Anyway, thank u... just for being a decent, considerate human being!

The belt, although it doesn't light up all the way around, it IS reflective, so there's that.

    I do like the new format of the bonus material at the end of each video. I would love to see you keep doing your videos this way, but don't get me wrong the was you were doing the way that you were doing your RUclips videos before was working well for you too.
    Question: What your you doing for a live before you decided to go to RUclips full time?
    Question: number two: are you ever going to do due another video outside in the feature?
