Product Description
BE SEEN! If you're not seen by others around you, you're in trouble. Most Drivers don't expect to see anything smaller than a car. They may be looking right at you, but a small motorcycle just won't register. With so many automobiles equipped with Daytime Running Lights (DRL) on the road, motorcycles have a hard time standing out. PathBlazer headlight modulator makes a motorcycle 200% more visible. P115W-D unit is designed for a motorcycle with dual 3-pin H4, or a Japanese H7 2-pin style headlamps. It's 1.50" (38mm) round, and requires only 0.6" (15mm) of additional room after it's plugged on the back of the bulb. P115W-D unit is totally self-contained. There are no hidden boxes or switches. There are no wires to cut or splice. Some motorcycles have very little room aft of the bulb socket. Use the "S" series PathBlazer for such applications. PathBlazer circuit modulates the hi-beam current - from 100% ON to about 17% OFF. This is accomplished by using a p-channel MOSFET, which is inherently safe. The MOSFET is designed to fail in the ON state. For additional safety, the circuit DOES NOT utilize the lo-beam whatsoever! MAX power rating is 115 watts. P115W-D comes with a detachable daylight sensor, which simply plugs into the PathBlazer. The daylight sensor functions as a switch; it stops modulation when it cannot see enough daylight. Since the internal circuitry is controlled by a microprocessor, which allows for customizable features. Programmable Daylight Sensor If you turn the high beam on and then turn the ignition on three times quickly, the sequence is interpreted as an active command to change the sensitivity. The daylight sensor has a low frequency filter to avoid false triggering. Please note that florescent lamps may not trigger the sensor - it needs constant incandescent light.

Easy to install, works great, but be careful what you wish for
By Perini Scleroso
This product was easy to install, works as advertised. I used it a lot, but have noticed that when I use it on the Interstate, all traffic ahead of me slows down to the speed limit or below. I assume they think I'm a cop.Here in California many freeways are filled with speeders, but with this device turned on, all the cage drivers slow down and make hazards of themselves. It's a great safety feature as far as visibility, but on the highway I kind of think it may make you less safe, as the cars around seem to change lanes, slowing down and behave more erratically than usual. I generally use it around town, not on the highway for this reason. I've experimented with it enough to say that on the Northern California bay area highways, it makes cars respond erratically.

Good for the day riding but not Night
By Q. Xue
First of all, BikerHiway has an excellent service and I have no complaint. But the product itself I do have.If you are riding at night this modulator really has a problem with its "8-time flashes revert-back confirmation" of sensitivity adjustment. It means that whenever you intentionally or not flick you hi-beam light at ANY time of riding (not only first 2 seconds after the ignition is turned on as mentioned in the manual), the modulator "thinks" that you are trying to setup the sensitivity. For the reason that you are at night, the modulator will not accept the setting and give you back an "8 times hi-beam flashes" confirmation. AND, this 8 times flashes will ONLY terminated if you keep the hi-beam on and waiting it until all flashes are done completely, if you turn hi-beam off before, it will restart from zero next time when you turn it on again. This "extra-function" really bothers other drivers at night and you just lose your normal hi-beam functionality and it really distract your attention of riding which is quite danger.This problem has confirmed by the Kisan and they told me that If I flick the hi-beam on during dark, I have to do it with about 1.5 seconds between each time. This will allow the flash memory counter to be reset and will not count toward the 3-times on of the sensitivity adjustment.

Almost there
By khat
Strengths:Modulates headlight, easy installation, compact design (so much better than extra hanging wire setups and no stock wiring mods required), default setting for modulating sensor is perfect (no probs with shadows and it keeps flashing during dusk, but only till you actually need headlight). Makes people at stop signs and left turners actually stop for a second to figure out what is going on with the modulating light, instead of booking it into traffic.Weaknesses:Slightly expensive. As other reviewer noted, no matter when you flick the high beam on and off (and when would you ever do that?), if you do it a few times, the headlight flashes either 4 times or 8 times afterwards; if it worked as described in the literature, it would be perfect. I wish the light sensor was slightly smaller and black or silver, not bronze with a big ridged head (for the flush mount), but I installed with zip ties and it's not too noticeable. I also wish there was an easy way to make this a 3 setting system, the two low and high default settings, and 1 with highbeam modulation (for situations like driving in heavy traffic when you know the guy in front of you wants to kill you, but you are still afraid of people crossing in front of you at intersections if they can't see you and think you are a break after they guy in front of you). Not too big of a deal, but I ride with low beam more than I used to, but I'm extra safe on high. Looks like you can just unplug the daylight sensor and it is disabled without having to take apart. Also, all the lights on my bike modulate slightly while this is on. Not a problem, because the tail light is a little more conspicuous with the slight pulse, but I imagine the cops could call this out as a problem. This issue is mainly due to the now heavily loaded electrical system (2003 SV650S), I've got slightly brighter than stock headlights, added marker light front blinkers, and put P3s on the tail. I'm not certain if this would ever happen while driving, but playing with it in the garage (modulator off in the dark, bike running), I hit the brakes several times in a row with the high beam on, and I think the dip in power caused the 8 times flash to go off. I was only able to repeat this result twice. This has not happened while driving yet, but I don't repeatedly tap the brakes with the P3s installed.CONCLUSION: Totally awesome, go for it. Just consider the details above first to see if it is appropriate for your particular setup. Perhaps consider another if you installed aftermarket lights that cause your whole bike's lights to dim when you go from high to low beam or during braking, and you plan to tap your brake (or flick your high and low beam manually) repeatedly fast often.
