Summer is rolling into fall and the sun is setting earlier at night, making it a little more dangerous if you’re used to going on an evening run.

Fortunately, we’ve spotted a new pair of headphones on Amazon that let you take your walk or run into the late nights while making sure you stay visible. These HAKII Light 2 headphones feature a light up headband that emits a bright green glow, making sure you’re well-lit, even in dark neighborhoods.

The wrap around design means the entire back of your head is lit up, lending a halo-style effect to keep you fully in view. It’s more effective than running vests or armbands with reflective patches, which only show up when a light is pointed in their direction. These light-up headphones stay bright the entire time, making sure you’re visible to drivers, cyclists and other pedestrians.

Of course, these are headphones designed for music too, and the HAKII Light 2 features surprisingly powerful sound with big bass, to boost your running playlist. The adjustable headband features a comfortable over-ear design that helps the headphones stay in place even as you’re moving.

The wireless headphones are also rated IPX5 to be sweat and water-resistant — no need to worry if you’re caught in the rain as the music will keep playing. Wipe them down with a towel or cloth to dry.

The HAKII Light 2 portable headphones also use Bluetooth 6.0 technology, one of the latest Bluetooth standards for wireless pairing. What that means: connecting to your phone is super fast and less prone to breaking up.

Of course the light-up headband is why you’ll be buying these headphones, but there’s another safety feature you may not know about: the open-ear design means the earcups rest against your ears rather than covering them up entirely. That allows you to stay aware of your surroundings (say, if a car is approaching or someone is calling out for you) without losing track of your music.

Regularly $59.99, get the HAKII Light 2 headphones on sale for just $46.99 right now on Amazon. A bonus: for a limited time, you can apply an on-site coupon to bring the price down to just $32. We’ve purchased the above model with a neon green light, but you can also pick up a pair of headphones with a glowing orange headband here.

As with all Amazon deals, pricing could change at any time so we recommend adding to cart while the headphones are still in stock at the sale price.
