About Blackburn Grid Side Beacon Light Set
Day or night, be seen in intersections with the the eye-catching glow of the Grid Side Beacon. Blackburn understand being able to see in the dark is important, but they also believe that so is being visible to cars. A recent study by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) showed 27% of bicycle accidents are side impacts and 30% of fatalities occur in intersections (between 2010-2017). Being seen from all angles while cycling has never been easier.

The Grid Side Beacon was imagined to work with head/tail lights to keep you more visible from a full 360 degrees. Designed to be mounted to either side of your fork with reusable silicone straps, the Grid Side Beacon can be used as a stand-alone light, or as part of our Luminate 360 Light Set. Spec'd with eye-catching amber-colored LEDs, the weather-proof, rechargeable Grid Side Beacon set comes with a dual-headed charger and has a runtime of up to 6 hours for multiple days of commuting illumination.

Features
360-Degree Visibility: If you could be seen from every angle, why wouldn't you want to? Blackburn designed their side visibility lights to work in concert with their front and rear lights to keep you seen, day or night, from any angle, for 360-degree visibility.

Amber LEDs: Because it sits right in the center of the visible light spectrum, amber is the first color the eye can pick up. It is universally accepted that yellow/amber lights mean caution, or slow down, making them ideal for side visibility light.

One For Each Side: Blackburn's Grid Side Beacon and Luminate 360 sets come with two lights, one for each side of your bike. They include two different sized rubber bands to accommodate varying thicknesses/tapers of fork blades, downtubes or top tubes.

Meets ANSI FL-1 Standard: This standard was created by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) to provide consistent performance measurements for handheld lights.

About Blackburn
In 1975, Jim Blackburn looked at the at the emerging cycling culture and knew he could make a difference. That meant thinking from the user's perspective, showing respect for materials and their functionality, while bringing unprecedented innovation. Over the years, they've taken those principles to build gear that allow people to go further, do more and be prepared for anything.
