Wipey has launched on the market Bikerguardits second evolution of the innovative helmet wiper. This curious device offers a practical solution to face the rain and promises a high level of functionality thanks to its new advanced functions.
The concept is really not new. Wipey He already launched it a few years ago, as we told you at the time. And yes, we have seen it on other occasions, including Chinese variants… It is curious that over the last few years, the technologies integrated into motorcycle helmets, including wireless communication systems, head-up displays, miniature cameras, LEDs and lights brake… It hasn’t stopped growing. Of course, not all of these inventions are approved for circulation in our country. The Civil Guard has a lot to say about it.
One thing is clear, over time helmet cleaning systems have not achieved very striking success. There are several examples and, despite their effectiveness, the reason for the failure, perhaps, lies in the fact that many motorcyclists prefer a simpler and cheaper solution, such as a spatula integrated into the left glove, which fulfills the same function. in a more practical way.
However, Wipey has decided to try again, introducing an improved version of its helmet wiper, called Bikerguard. As it could not be otherwise, this renewed device stands out for its generic and universal design, thanks to a fixation system using a support screwed to the helmet visor. Although it is compatible with most helmets, it has limitations with certain modular models, especially those whose chin guard rises independently of the visor.
He Bikerguard It is controlled by a simple button that attaches to the motorcycle’s handlebars, providing the rider with simple and efficient handling. The technology behind it gadget It includes a Japanese-made brushless motor, ensuring long-lasting performance. It is powered by a 1.4 Ah lithium-ion battery, capable of offering between 5 and 15 hours of continuous use, depending on conditions.
Of course, the device is built to withstand the harshest weather. Its waterproof housing, with IPX-6 certification, protects it against water and its torque limiter prevents the motor or internal components from being damaged in the event of a brush blockage.
Regarding its size, the Bikerguard It is compact, with a central unit measuring 4x4x6 cm and weighing only 80 grams, which does not place a large additional burden on the helmet. The battery is easily recharged via a USB cable.
Despite all its technical advantages, the device remains a considerable investment due to its recommended price of 399 euros. Therefore, its profitability will largely depend on how much it is used, making it a more attractive option for those who live in regions with rainy climates and need to drive under any weather conditions.
Even so, the Bikerguard It promises, once again, to be a revolutionary solution for those looking for a more comfortable and safer driving experience on rainy days.
