Liio LED Belts: The Thoughtful and Easy-to-Use LED Light Belt System
This is our passion project: Liio LED belts, a personal illumination system that is easy to use, adjustable, versatile, and helps you stay safe. (Liio is pronounced the same as the name "Leo.") Whether you walk, run, hike, bike for fun, bike to work, walk your pet, motorcycle, skateboard, roller blade, roller skate, need to conduct roadside repairs, etc., Liio LED belts are a low-cost and simple way to keep you and your loved ones safe. Liio LED belts have several thoughtfully-designed features that distinguish it from other visibility solutions.

Thoughtful design #1: Bright when it should be, low-key when it should be
![]()
We designed Liio LED belts so that they are bright and highly visible when necessary -- for example, when you're running, walking, or bicycling at night -- but also underrated and low-key when they should be -- for example, when you enter a store or cafe. This is especially true of our Liio Luxe LED belts, which come in a simple black-and-white color scheme but still illuminate with red, green, or blue LED light. Liio Standard LED belts come in a similarly understated color scheme, with black-colored fabric combined with a LED light area that corresponds to the color of the illuminated LED light -- red, green, or blue.
Thoughtful design #2: Light that stays with you

If you ride a bike, motorcycle, or scooter, your vehicle has lights and/reflectors; however, what happens if you get knocked off or fall off your vehicle? With a Liio LED belt, the light stays with you, so that you are still visible to others even if you get knocked off or fall off. This is really important in helping you stay safe in the event of an accident!
Thoughtful design #3: Reflective extension belt

Liio LED belts come with a reflective extension belt. The reflective extension allows you to quickly and easily extend the length of the belt so that you can wear it over your shoulder or across a backpack. You can also use the reflective extension belt separately in other ways, such as around your ankle. The extension belt is reflective, helping you stay safe.
Thoughtful design #4: USB rechargeable
![]()
Liio LED belts are USB rechargeable, and each Liio LED belt will include a micro-USB-to-full-size-USB cable. The power unit of a Liio LED belt has a micro-USB port just like many existing smartphones and tablets. You can use the included USB cable to charge the LED belt with a computer, USB wall charger, or USB power bank. (Computer, USB wall charger, and USB power bank not included.)

For this crowdfunding campaign, we are raising funds to offer Liio LED belts in two styles -- Liio Standard and Liio Luxe -- and in three colors in each style, for a total of six different models. Liio Standard has a red, green, or blue center portion to correspond with the color of the LED light; Liio Luxe has a silver-white-colored center portion, which illuminates in your choice of red, green, or blue LED light (one color per LED belt). Both Liio Standard and Liio Luxe are made with black elastic polyester belt webbing with a reflective stripe, the same material as the included reflective extension belt. In addition, every Liio LED belt has two power-on modes: flashing light and constant light.
