As some of you know I am part of a awesome group of people called the “Guardians of the Community”.\u00a0We offer our\u00a0first-aid, first response, and safety expertise to different local festivals. One of our pieces of gear is a nite-ize arm band<\/a> that illuminates red. This allows us to be seen at night and designates us as a Guardian. So earlier in the year I saw a kick-starter for the something similar in belt form and thought how awesome that would be to use at festivals. They called it Halo Belt 2.0 and\u00a0marketed for use as a safety piece of equipment\u00a0for bikers, joggers, or anybody else that would be out at night and needs to be visible. So today I went to the mailbox and what was waiting for me? My red\u00a0Halo Belt<\/a>!<\/p>\n

One of the cool things about this belt is that it is chargeable through a Micro USB connection (cable included). I am\u00a0impressed on how sturdy the construction of this 2″ wide 3M reflective adjustable elastic belt is. The illumination strip is 16″ long\u00a0which\u00a0comes in 3 different colors red, blue, & green and can either flash or stay solid. It is weather proof and fits up to a 46″ waist. Right out of the box it is bright and consistent along its length.<\/p>\n

I was barking mad when I went to their site to find\u00a0that they are now making dog collars as well to keep your canine companion visible when you decided to walk them at night!<\/p>\n

So if you are out prowling at\u00a0night and want<\/span> to be seen\u00a0I recommend looking into getting one of these. I hope you will check it out!<\/p>\n
