About
About the Orb
1/3 serious accidents are caused by a side impact from a vehicle. The Orb keeps you safe and seen from the side at night. The Orb functions as a water bottle, but the lid contains four super-bright LEDs illuminating the bottle with over 70 lumens of light.
It allows drivers to see cyclists as they approach them from the side, using orange lights – the colour of side visibility on the road. The Orb also making use of the phenomenon of “biomotion” – by highlighting the pedalling motion of the rider’s legs, drivers have been found to identify cyclists from over three times further away

Guarantee and Caring for your Orb
Here at Orb HQ, we’re pretty confident you’re going to like what we’ve got. So confident in fact, that we’re going to offer you our satisfaction or 110% money-back guarantee within 30 days.

Orb Warranty
We are not messing about with our Orb warranty. If it’s broken, and it’s our fault, we’ll replace it. It’s as simple as that, and you won’t have any trouble holding us to it. Just get in touch on [email protected] and we’ll take care of it.
Caring for your Orb
In order to care for your Orb, dry it out regularly. The bottle part is dishwasher safe, but the top section should not be placed in a dishwasher (we’ve heard reports of some surviving, but not all…), instead handwash with warm soapy water (try not to submerge). To clean around the nozzle, grasp the black silicon drinking part firmly and pull upwards to remove it. When replacing this part, ensure it is lined up with the internals of the orange piece. If your Orb also has a colourless silicone seal on the underside of the lid, this can also be gently removed and cleaned.
FAQs
FAQs
Why is the Orb orange?
Orange is the colour of side-lighting on the roads. Lorries (trucks to you Americans), vans, trailers, buses, and some cars use orange side lights.
Can you drink from it?
Yes! The Orb is not just a light – it is BPA free, and has a capacity of 700ml.
Does The Orb work just as well with or without water in it?
Yes! The Orb works either way!
Do legs obscure The Orb when it’s on the bike?
No, just watch the video for proof!
Will the LEDs heat up the water?
No, the LEDs we use are very efficient, and have no effect on the water temperature.
What settings does The Orb have?
The Orb can be used on: full power constant, half power constant, pulse, and two separate flash modes.
