 Posted: 13:19 - 11 Feb 2019 Post subject: STS Smart Brake System |
 |
|
My father highlighted this gizmo and i wondered if anyone uses it.

Smart Brake Module is a small electronic device, which senses when the bike is slowing down by the means of engine braking or down-shifting and it activates the brake light.
It seems like a great idea but interested to hear what other have to say. |

Brake lights coming on when you're not using your brakes sounds questionable.  |

Back in the 90's... you could get little novelty 'smurf' like helmet ornaments to stick on your hat, that had an LED, a deaf-aid battery and an 'inertia-switch' (ball-bearing on a copper track, with a spring behind it!)... that pretty much did the same thing.... its nothing 'new'
And to my mind, its all a bit like Audi-Indicators.... just why? really. "But he didn't indicate!" says the No-Win lawyer as he goes into court.... "So WHY weren't you watching where either HE or YOU were bludy going!"
If twit don't look, twit don't look! Its just another excuse for them not to look, "Well, their retard lamp didn't come on! How was I supposed to know he was slowing down!"
"Technology" is the practical application of scientific knowledge to solve a 'problem'... like using a lever to lift something you cant by hand.
This really isn't 'technology', its a gadget... its a solution looking for a problem! ____________________ My Webby'Tef's-tQ, loads of stuff about my bikes, my Land-Rovers, and the stuff I do with them!

Nah I have a compass inside my boot!
That switch needs a spirit level too.
Engine braking shocked me on mine first time I rode it and I knew followers could be caught out with it. To compensate I slightly touch my rear brake pedal enough to light the rear lamp but not enough to actuate the brakes. The lamp lights up but the engine slows me down. ____________________ CCM 404 DS |

That's only going to be useful when the cars drive themselves or are parked up because I've never seen anyone in the front passenger seat let alone the back seats in an Audi ____________________ Moto Roma Wasp, Intruder 125, XJ600 Diversion, GPz 750r, zxr 750 H1, vfr750, CBR600f, ZX9R
