Thanks to these solar powered lights you don’t have to worry anymore about getting fresh batteries for your lights and you will be seen from nearly 1 kilometer away. These lights are also very light and comfortable and are eco-friendly both in their power source and production.
Pedalite has also pedals that have a white, an orange and a red LED for the front, side and rear of the pedal respectively. They don’t use batteries or sunlight but pedalling as its power source and they are shock and water proof. They offer a 360ยบ visibility with 1 kilometer range.

The pros
- High visibility during 6 hours.
- Maintenance and battery free.
- Light and comfortable.
- Water resistant.
The cons
- Bright enough to make you visible but not to see the terrain.
- The lack of alternative power source could be a problem if you really need light and there is no time to charge them.
The verdict
All the Pedalite products are well made and although they are a bit pricey, the cost of batteries in just few months of constant use compensates so the pay for themselves. Also they can be recharged with direct sunlight or artificial light so you can just wear them all the time knowing that you’ll always have positioning lights with you. Just in case you should also bring with you an emergency light and lights to see your surroundings if you plan to go through non illuminated areas.
