These radar lights usually do two things. They flash rapidly if a car comes too close to the cyclist and they also enable your head unit to display an indication of how far away the car behind you is.
So you kinda need a head unit to make the best use of your 100$+ light.
I've seen cyclists use it to know when they will be overtaken. They all like it but I've seen it only among cyclists who cycle as a sport.
Will try this one for sure! Hope it's good
Nice build. We use a lot of aluminium profiles at work for prototyping. We also have a mitre saw ;)
You can also have polycarbonate panels made for cheap to have a more finished appearance at the cost of ventilation and ease of access.
If you want to discover some even more obscure UNIX, SDF is having its Plan9 boot camp this Sunday. You can register now to get an access to their public access Plan9 machine at sdf.org/plan9
Nice! Gemtext and gemini in general is a really cool playground. I also learnt awk to do my gem2web script and all this lead me to web hosting. Very nice technology.
I wouldn't even though I own and buy DVDs regularly. It is the best method I found to watch old movies (Citizen Kane, the Alien quadrilogy, Dune from 1984, the LoTR trilogy, Waterworld) without subscribing to six different streaming platform.
But I understand the golden age of physical media has passed so for new movies I don't know what to do.
It helps when the car is going real fast so you don't even have time to hear it or for people who don't want/can't look behind them to know if there is a car when they turn left.
With a radar you are never surprised so it can help some people to feel safe.
I don't think it changes how you react but how you anticipate.
Even then I don't have a radar on my bike. It's too expensive for my use case right now.
