my main goal here is to save lives having seen a good friend of mine badly hurt in the rain


Really? On a motorbike?

What actually caused your pal to crash? And if he couldn't see where the fuck he was going, why the hell didn't he slow down, or stop?

Would this imaginary widget of yours actually have saved him crashing?

Do YOU actually ride a motorbike at all?

And IF you are concerned about motorcycle 'safety'... just how many motorcycle accidents each year are due in full or part to impaired vision due to rain on the visor?

Compared to say, being an idiot and riding too fast for the conditions; or having squared or bald tyres on the bike, or pure numptiness, locking a wheel in panic?

AND, given that little statistic, IS your little brain-fart.. which I have to say, just about every school-child who's ever picked up a full-face bone dome has thought of before you, have ANY chance of actually reducing that number?

I really don't believe you have the slightest interest in, let alone basic knowledge of, motorcycle safety, or that your proposed 'product' would have the slightest impact on it; when folk will still spend more money to NOT be able to see where they are going through a 'cool & trendy' dark, iridium or rainbow tinted visor, night or day, wet or dry weather conditions, and some-how manage to survive whilst doing so.

Thomas Edison, one of the most prolific 'professional;' inventors of the modern age; " Invention is 1% inspiration, 99% inspiration...."

So before you stick the begging bowl out, asking folk to fund your fantasies, go do some basic fucking home-work.... rather than spamming us with this shit, hoping we'll massage your ego for being such a 'genius' and do the grunt work it takes to make an idea a reality for you.

what about some constructive feedback.


I'd gladly give some constructive feedback for something that exists.

The Rainpal video claims it has been tested "up to 160kmh" so there must be a physical product of some description, no? A 3D printed dummy, perhaps? Show us something that isn't CGI.

We are evaluating making Rainpal in phosphorescent paints which are even available in white and will glow white at night and stay partially charged due to car head lights, street lights etc.


Maybe leave development of that and the wash-wipe for the Mk II, eh?

The Patent numbers are easily found in searches, beware.

What's the big deal about not wanting to tell us the patent application number unless you're lying about everything?

I lurked on here long before I started posting, and I don't remember Tef even bothering to post in a thread like this, let alone doing so to rip someone a new one...Mr Raining Men or whoever you are (I've avoided the original thread), this should tell you something....Rogerborg will take off his hi-vis to clout you one next...! Things is getting weird yo!

Old Thread Alert!

The last post was made 10 years, 1 day ago. Instead of replying here, would creating a new thread be more useful?
