1. knog. Plus
The shape and function of a paper clip served as inspiration for the development of the Plus. Accordingly, the Velcro holder for seat posts or Nordic walking poles, which is siliconised on the inside, has a strong magnet that holds the clip-shaped light securely in place. Outside the holder, the Plus can be attached to clothing or bags using a clip and can therefore be used for running or outdoor activities. An ideal positioning of the light for cyclists or runners is the socks or leg hems due to the biomotion effect: according to research results, cyclists who have a light attached to their foot are perceived as such over three times the distance, in contrast to a permanently mounted light on a bicycle.
