The Clearest Vision Ever For Your Visor

[Rainpal.co.uk]

Hi, we felt that riding in the rain, drizzle, traffic spray, salt spray compromised vision to such an extent we are developing an electric wiper for all Full Face and Flip Face visors. The prototype is coming in November please take a look at www.rainpal.co.uk and let us know your views or our Facebook page at https://www.facebook.com/rainpalwiper

I did let Adam know my views on his Facebook page, but they quickly disappeared and now I can't post there again. Surely some mistake?

To be fair, Adam didn't say in which November he'd yet again fail to show any evidence of a physical product.

The actual fuck? Now he's claiming it'll have a jet wash as well as a wiper? Surely he just be trollin' us?

He does say he has the motor and batteries.

I could also order these from china, so in all fairness I could be at the same stage of development as he is, within a week.

I wonder if he organises themed festival weekenders for the family?

Please keep a single post to one section. It seems that some people who have already looked into your product think you're a charlatan, scammer and a liar. It'd be nice if you had the opportunity to provide a positive response to them rather than being banned for spamming. Something which would reflect even less well on your project.

Rain is probably the only pal this jockstrap will ever have

I have no idea how any claims can be made about the performance of a product that hasn't even got to the prototype stage.

For instance, the rate at which rain hits your visor, can be quite high when travelling at just 50mph. The speed at which the wiper would need to make a sweep would be very fast and I am doubting that this could be done reliably enough for the rate of sweeps needed to keep the visor even relatively clear. I can imagine it would be best suited to just slow riding around town in some light drizzle. This would account for about 3-4 hours of my riding per year. I can make do with a finger wipe. So, for that reason, I'm out.

I also mean within the limits of the size of motor used and the demands put on it. I know hdd motors are good enough, but gears would need to be high grade to deal with the torque that a little motor would generate to wind up fast for a sweep quick enough. I doubt this can all be done within the budget required, unless they were making huge volumes of them. Which is also doubtful.
It's a very high demand for the motor and gears, which will become apparent when and if the prototype is made.

seems I too have been banned from facebook for posting about him spamming forums.
Would somone like to try posting this on his page...

i got banned for asking whether he had a patent to prevent it being ripped off by others.

perhaps that's because there is no patent. the previous one was terminated by the patent office, and the current one has no hope of getting granted according to the patent office.

well done rainpal, you managed to completely cock it all up in spectacular fashion

id buy this if it actually worked at my riding speeds.. and that is 80-100~ in the rain.. if it cant keep up then no point using it.

curious how this would work for a giant bug splat...

also id only buy if its <£50..a lot under £50

Every time I put my helmet on I think, "I wish this was heavier, and rattlier, and noisier. I wish the visor had the weight of a motor and some batteries on it to stop it from staying open. I wish that for the 95% of the time that I'm riding and it isn't raining that I had some cheap little wiper blade flapping around in the wind. And I wish that for the other 5% of the time, I had a thin piece of rubber smearing road-muck over my visor while a system of motors and gear deafens me with its mechanical whine."

And now it looks like my every wish has come true

Another thought WTF is the washer bottle going to go?

Or will we have a Urinary catheterisation to squirt fluid to clear the smeared mess you always get when driving in the rain....
