Plug & Play is a Dual-Volume Motorcycle Horn to Protect Cyclists
Jonathon Brown — November 18, 2012 — Autos
The Plug & Play motorcycle horn aims to make the road a bit more safe for motorcyclists. From the makers of Screaming Banshee comes this dual-volume horn designed to give motorcycles the same "beeping power" as the cars they compete for space with on the road.
After developing the Screaming Banshee and driving a successful IndieGoGo.com campaign, Peter Olt is back with a more compact, easier to install horn system. This time around, when the rider beeps the motorcycle horn the headlight also flashes, which adds another alert element. This added feature enables riders to get drivers' attention and avoid collisions.
Installing the Plug & Play motorcycle horn only means connecting four wires and turning two screws. According to Peter Olt, the volume level on this horn is not available on any other horn of its size.
Plug & Play is now in development and has a fundraising goal of $8,600. With 11 days left, donations are at almost $7,200.
