[NAGDU] Lights While Walking

[Brent Franklin]

The Ruffwear one's are very good, I've used one and had several people
comment on the light provided. I like the beep every 5 minutes just to let
you know the light is still on. I'm totally blind having no vision at all,
and this light is so simple and easy to use.

Cheers.

Brent.

Ruffwear has a good one.
It's waterproof; You attach it to the harness.  When turned on, it
flashes,
cycling through different speeds.
You can take the light off of the base and charge it with a USB cord.
When turning the light on or off, it plays a little tune.  For those of us
with hearing loss, it's not that easy to hear; but if you can see light,
you
can tell whether it's on or off.
It's not perfect, but works well for me.

Ruffwear also has a reflective jacket you can get for your dog.

And remember, you can ask for a Ruffwear Pro discount because you have a
service dog, and that discount really helps.

I believe Julie Johnson also carries a light of a different sort, so maybe
she'll chime in as well.

Kind regards,
Susan

Hi All,

Since the time change, here in SC it is dark around 5:15 to 5:30 PM. I
still
would like to go walking with my guide. I wear a reflective vest, but I
would also like to get some type of light for me and my guide to wear that
is hands free. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance!

Steve Cook
