Great idea, I'm for anything that increases your visibility.

They had very similar units, but not wireless, for snowmobiles over 10 years ago.

Wireless is much more functional . I couldn't imagine having my helmet tethered to my bike.
Did the snomobile one(s) have turn signal capability , too ?
There is a wireless jacket (armored) with brake and turn signals imbedded in the fabric, but- that limitsyou to only that jacket .

I looked into a similar unit a couple of years ago. The problem it had was that the transmitter (that sends the brake signal to the light) was built into a special tail/brake light bulb that came with the unit; you had to use that accompanying bulb. This precluded the use of better (e.g. LED) bulbs, and to top it off, a replacement bulb was something like $50 or $60. Obviously, I decided to pass.

This helmet is perfect for Vegas. I see too many morons when I am in my car and bike that simply chose to not to be visible to the drivers around them.
