Anyone considered setting up helmet brake lights?

The [url=https://thirdeyedesigninc.com/]Inview option seems to be a well thought of design. Expensive though - and you'd have to tap to multiple wires below the seat. The kit does seem to come with all the connectors. Not sure if we can use positaps below our seat.

A bunch of way cheaper options available too - [url=https://www.amazon.com/YIBO-Wireless-Motorcycle-Helmet-Indicators/dp/B07WVWZSKY/ref=sr_1_10?dchild=1&keywords=helmet+brake+light&qid=1592754339&sr=8-10]helmet brake light. Not sure of the quality of these though.

Another option with no wiring needed - [url=https://www.brakefreetech.com/products/brake-free]Brake free. Looks well made, but doesn't integrate with the brake lights and turn signals - so in my opinion, this one is too expensive too.

Wondering, whether the cheap ones are a good starting point - but then again tapping into wires with cheap electronics may be a recipe for disaster. Before I make another frivolous purchase, someone discourage me...

Have this one brand new in the box, never used/mounted.
If someone pays for shipping, estimated/U$30, would like to get rid of it, not my style.
