They're real and currently available in Australia, but not in the US as
far as I can tell.

it has not died out." -- The Daily Telegraph (1877)

After your posting, I did a little research.

They are available, but as yet no US distributor has picked them up.

The minimums from the manufacturer seem to be at fault.

Whereas I think they are "fun" they don't seem to be true bicycle equipment.

Offerings from Walmart and others are very similar, but geared toward
children.

Having been in the business for over 20 years, I don't see a US distributor
carrying them.

Look for them in Walmart. Again, I think the lights are cool, just not
marketable in the quantitites required for a single shop to buy.

Persons Majestic. A US distributor is now carrying the lights.

They have a US website (does it matter) (URL www.knogusa.com) where you can
order the lights individually.

You are probably familiar with Persons bike workstand. See it on their
website www.permaco.com
