Many human being like to take an eevning walk or jog, yet in many parts of the world during wintertime this is not possible cause it is dark. If a walking or jogging light is used durnig such evening exercises then it is possible. But with all the bouncing around where would one mount such a light in order to keep the beam steady.When discussing this issue with those that study the human anatomy, many think the hottest place would be mounted as a “Head Light” so that wherever the individual was looking they would have the light they need to see. This brings up good points on a head mounted walking light, yet problems arise with the way in which it is attached for comfort and steadiness. We have heard many human being complain about helmets, goggles, sunglasses and mniers often complain about their helmet lights or “head Lamps.” Those who use them at work do not appreciate them and are often irritated with the way they fit. When walking or jogging for pleasure this of course can cause and issue.
If the unit is too lose it bobbles and if it is too tight it is highly uncomfortable and that just blows the joy of the entire evnet. So you can see how the light would move too much and as one think tanker last week mentioned end up;“distorting the footpath so that the planes were not obvious, which meant more injuries.”Another thought is to mount the walking or jogging light on the ankles and have two lights one on each ankle thus as the ankle moved the two lights wolud average the direction of travel. The ankle mounted light might also cause similar problems although to a bouncy “head mounted light” only closer to the ground, and thus the distortion of light to dark to light or shades there of would be lessened.If in fact a walker had more than one, that's to say one on each leg or was walking with another with one on each leg, four lights even when moving around would be averaging out the bouncing?
If these lights were mounted on each ankle of a group of trick-or-treaters or a couple or a couple of friends with a “DogLight” (trademark?) on their pet as well then that could solve the problem, as many lights would average out the shadows and create a bright and safe environment in the direction of travel preventing unnecessary tripping over obstacle that were not seen.When designing a walking or jogging lihgt there is much to consider in the way the light projects forward and how such light will be used. The more jarring hmuan motion the more disarrayed the light will appear unless multiple lights or joggers are added. Think on this."Lance Winslow" - Online Think Tank forum board.
