Looking for simple platform pedals I came across the Pedalite pedals that have build in LED lights, a generator and capacitor that keeps the LEDs flashing for a few minutes after stopping. Pretty neat idea. But the pedal don't seem to have a good grip. A french review states that they found them slippery in rain. For $50 one would expect a better designed pedal. I still like the idea of an no maintenance always on blinking pedal light and could be good for touring as long as you don't want to do anything stealth.
