P3 Lights

P3 Lights Features & Benefits

P3 Lights add two rows of very bright, computer-controlled LEDs on each side of your motorcycle's rear license plate, supplementing the existing tail & brake light. These LEDs are programmed to flicker at a specific rate that is seen out of drivers' peripheral vision, dramatically increasing your bike's visibility to traffic behind you. Note that this flicker is only noticed when the lights are seen out of the driver's peripheral vision, and not when he is looking directly at your motorcycle.

In addition to adding much brighter lights, the use of rapid acting LEDs in the brake light circuit reduces the time it takes for the lights to reach maximum brightness compared to a normal incandescent bulb. This allows the driver to see that you are braking sooner that he otherwise would, resulting in up to a 17 foot shorter stopping distance at 60 mph.

Another feature of P3 Lights is that when the brakes are applied P3 Lights rapidly flash. This rapid flashing signal has been shown by independent research to reduce the response time of drivers by an average of up to 0.2 seconds. This corresponds to another 17 foot reduction in stopping distance at 60 mph compared to conventional brake lights.

P3 Lights design retains the existing tail light rather than replacing it as other designs do. This provides three valuable benefits:

it increases the overall lit area visible to traffic behind you
it eliminates bulb-out errors caused by a change in operating current
it provides an important redundancy feature should either of the light systems fail

P3 Lights includes an intelligent microprocessor controller and two high-intensity LED modules, as shown on the right, plus all necessary connectors and mounting hardware. The intelligent controller provides conspicuity flicker, a high visibility feature unique to our lights, and also allows the lights to be reprogrammed for several different functions, as indicated below:
