The Bicycle Safety Flashing Night Light can be used on push bikes via the special seat post mounting bracket, or; attached to a belt or pocket clip for use by joggers, pedestrians, strollers/prams and horseback riders.

The safety flasher can also be used as an emergency or warning light for cars or when out camping. It is especially recommended for any person using the road who wants to be seen in unfavourable lighting conditions (e.g. fog or heavy mist) or at night. It is particularly useful for helping to keep children, the elderly and those who are visually impaired or challenged safer when using the roads.

    seems to be online only? nice find though

      Yep, but if you check for store stock by postcode i.e. your local store, if in stock it gives you the option to 'collect here'. That way no postage. I did it yesterday :o)

      • mrbombastic on 07/07/2011 - 22:23

        Ah ok. In that case nobody local has them

        • brisgirlsm on 07/07/2011 - 22:29

          Searched 2000 - Sydney George Street (Large) says there instock. Don't know if that helps you.

  • brisgirlsm on 07/07/2011 - 22:24

    That's a shame. It is a great little unit.

  • chickentaste on 07/07/2011 - 22:44

    These are actually pretty good; I have a stack of them I bought in Japan at the 100 yen store. Well worth it if you can be bothered..

      Ok, curiosity has gotten the better of me…I've gotta ask…why would you buy "a stack of them"? :)

    • octagonalman on 08/07/2011 - 00:08

      Daiso sell something quite similar too at their $2.80 stores. Might be worth paying a little bit more for something that is brighter and uses lighter AAAs. Mine needs to be realigned and retightened after a few jolts.

  • young_dazza on 07/07/2011 - 22:44

    Great price, shame about the postage

  • POWERevolution on 08/07/2011 - 00:11

    wondering can this be seen at night without flashing?

    • Steptoe on 08/07/2011 - 00:17

      They are usually reflective also, if that's what you mean.

      • POWERevolution on 08/07/2011 - 00:54

        yeah need 2 as a reflective to put it on a fence so give more vision @night.

    • brisgirlsm on 08/07/2011 - 00:21

      It has 5 very Bright LEDs and 7 different modes. One of them is the 5 LEDs stay on and do not flash - like turning a torch on. Hope that helps.

    sneaky so-and-so's.

    Put the price up to $3 MID-PURCHASE.

    They can keep 'em.

    • lakers1222 on 08/07/2011 - 01:55

      still shows $1.80 to me

    • POWERevolution on 08/07/2011 - 02:30

      Now $1.80
      Save $3.18

      • seb on 08/07/2011 - 03:06

        Yes, it seems to only change to "$3.05 save $3.18" after I add 7 (hey, I have kids). I will try adding fewer to my cart.

        • seb on 08/07/2011 - 03:22

          Cool, as soon as I login it changes from $180 to $3.05… :(

        • brisgirlsm on 08/07/2011 - 09:19

          7 for $12.60 + postage or pick up option - tried and worked for me. Don't know what is happening when you do it. Give them a call if you are still having issues. It is clearly $1.80 on website.

    i've got those lights, bought one front and one back light on ebay for just over $3.

    it's not bad price for pick up, i see them for $2 at $2 shops all the time.
    still think it's cheaper if you buy it on ebay, as the front led light are usually more expensive.
    if u dont mind the wait on postage from HK.

  • sloppy on 08/07/2011 - 11:03

    Nice work :)

    Grabbed 2 of them … hopefully I find time to pop into the store in the next 48 hours!

    Go to wiggle.co.uk and find cheap and real bike stuffs. free shipping over GBP50.

    • POWERevolution on 08/07/2011 - 14:02

      rubbish….post direct link if you dare!
      and don't compare apple with lemon!!!

    • sloppy on 08/07/2011 - 14:05

      Negging with a comment like that is ridiculous. Find me a light on wiggle for $1.80 that I can pick-up for free in Aus … obviously you can't. I love wiggle, I spend way too much money on that site in fact … but this is still a great bargain.

  • brisgirlsm on 08/07/2011 - 15:34

    Guys, not only $1.80 pick up but comes with 12 month Australian Warranty from Dick Smith. Any problems with it, you can return it. To me that is a BARGAIN!! Plus the clip to backpack or pants is awesome.

  • dalvin on 08/07/2011 - 15:39

    Nice find! I lost my rear light a couple of weeks ago. Grabbed 5 for me and some mates, shipping was the same for 1 or 5 @ $6.95. Bargain! Cheers!

    • brisgirlsm on 08/07/2011 - 15:53

      Welcome. Wait till you see the flashing functions, very cool and a lot better than I've seen in bike stores. Bought a new bike and into gadgets at the moment :o)

  • StalkingIbis on 08/07/2011 - 22:46

    dont clamp them up too tight, the ring is plastic and i snapped mine a while ago. very annoying

  • davedraper on 26/07/2011 - 12:52

    Seriously these things suck, the plastic clamp rings are completely useless - you're better off going to a bike shop or an online bike store like cyclingexpress.com.au
