Blinkers is a new lighting system that makes the urban cyclist more visible, more predictable and more respected. It’s not about making them more powerful, but about adding a set of extra safety functionalities, including turning indicators, a brake light and a laser projection. We launched in November 2017 and +2000 cyclists are using Blinkers!
I've not used this product, but I would on my bike (nick named Light Rider)
which has Monkey Lights on each tire, light stem caps, laser lane rear tailight... you get the idea, I've tricked my bike out, so NOBODY can say they didn't see me at night... (i'm 6'3" and not small lol)... I totally would rock this on my Bontrager rack!
I joined the kickstarter because bikes are the only way to make and keep our cities liveable. Living in Amsterdam means most cars (the drivers) know about bikes, but in many places in the world you could really use the extra indicators as cars don't care about bikes at all.
I didn t know about the automated break light, but that's a real cool feature as well.
The lights are very sturdy, excellent build. I would only like to see a stronger front mount for beater bikes like mine (city bikes, bikes you put down everywhere, etc. )
But that's perhaps only a Dutch thing ;)

Since I bought my blinkers I am never afraid of riding in the dark. It is a great safety device so that I can be seen by cars.
Outsanding Price/Quality ratio.
Pros:Amazing product, great quality
Cons:none

Pros:A LOT of light. And the automatic break light in the rear light. Very good option. The turning indicators are really helpful when it rains.
Cons:The front holder might need a little extra fortification for cities like Amsterdam
