Even has indicators! It was featured on BBC's Click recently.

Rainproof does not equal waterproof. Given the price, I can't see people quitting the Altura/Endura addiction of commuters.

Not a bad idea, though.

Like the idea.

I used to have one of On-One's reflective belt and shoulder strap things with the built in LEDs.

Visibility was excellent and I'm sure it will be with this one - but my on On-One version was 2 for a tenner.

Get the price down to £80 (decent jacket price plus a bit for the LEDs) and I think they have a winner.

How about the same technology in a rucksack, after all, thats what most people put over their high-viz jackets...

would it not be best to put the indicators at the ends of the arms?
