I bought the L.E.D. Marker Band by Nite Ize for our dog, Auggie (the doggie, mostly black with blond highlights German Shephard) for those late "doggie breaks" outside in the vacant field next to my house. Auggie can easily get lost in the darkness of night, and the LED Marker Band solves that problem.

I've felt much better about running after work after receiving this product. I share the road with cars and cyclists and am glad to have a lightweight, easy-to-use product, with such great visability. This will keep me on the road all winter long! I particularly like that it is not disposable - It is easy to change out the battery, and the batteries are readily available.

I love this band!
By DikidogVerified Reviewer from Oklahoma city, OK on 1/5/2007
Pros:
Easy To Pack, Effective, Simple To Use
Cons:
Light just comes in red
Best Uses:
Bike riding

I am a bicycle commuter and was looking for a product to hold back my pant legs so they wouldn't get caught in the gears. I bought two previous products. Neither one of them was very sturdy and both were not large enough to hold back my pants leg. One of these came off one time when I was riding (it just had velcro to hold it togther on my leg) and another time it slipped down while I was riding and created a hole in some nice dress pants of mine. I was really frustrated since I hadn't seen any other products to do the job.

I found Marker Band by accident as I was surfing the web. Though it is advertised as going on the arm, I have used it around my ankle to hold back my pant leg. It is adjustable so it fits perfectly. I like the fact that it has a buckle to put it on and off. I feel much safer with this bank that actually gives off a light rather than just reflect light like my two previous products that I tried. When I ride my bike in the morning, it is dark so I'm glad to have this band that has both a steady and blinking light on my ankle in addition to my usual back light on my bike.

I wish that the flashing light also came in green so I could wear a red flashing light on my left (port) ankle and a green flashing light on my right (starboard) side.
