HELITE E-TURTLE 2 AIR VEST

It is important to choose the right size of your airbag for optimal protection. For this, we advise you follow our size chart. Hint: measuring your back is important and a good indication to finding the right size. Please note that this Airbag Safety Vest should always be worn over your normal riding gear. You should therefore only take your measurements whilst wearing your equipment.

All replacement canisters can be purchased from our canisters section found in the main menu.

Perhaps you have lost your fork sensor pairing device or charging cable. It happens from time to time. These can be purchased from our Motorcycle Components section found in the main menu.

Yes, as long as the airbag is in good condition with no holes or tears. It’s easy to do, you can reset the system in under 2 minutes, without sending your airbag system back to us. You simply need to replace the CO2 canister with a new one, available in our canisters section. Please read the manual and see the videos section on this page, showing how this is done.

A typical charge takes around 3 hours but can vary due to battery level, temperature and age. During charge, the vest is not operational. The lights on the vest will determine if the battery is healthy, low (needs charging), or has an issue (needs replacing).

Each charge will last approximately 25 hours. It is worth checking the battery level before each use.

If you own several bikes, you can pair each vest with up to 5 fork sensors. Fork sensors can also be bought separately form our Motorcycle Components section situated in the main menu.

Yes. If you are carrying a pillion passenger, or many people use the same bike, then you can pair as many vests to the fork sensor as you like. It is worth noting that any airbag systems that are in the vicinity of the fork sensor whilst being paired to the sensor and switched on will be triggered in the event of an accident. Please read the manual carefully.

No. The fork sensor lasts for approximately 5 years. At this point a replacement will need to be purchased. Always check that you are pair to the sensor before use.

Yes and No. The motorcycle safety vest will work on its own if you are involved in an accident but only after reaching a speed of 22mph. The fork sensor will give collision detection, even when stationary.

No, once it is used you will need a replacement. All replacement canisters can be purchased from our canisters section found in the main menu.

All our airbag safety vest systems come with a 2 year warranty. You can extend this if you register the product within 3 months of purchase and have it serviced by us at the end of the first two years. This will give you an additional two years of warranty.

• Bus, train, car:

No constraint. For electronic models, remember to turn off the vest when you take this type of transport with your vest.

• Plane :

You may encounter some difficulties with the security services regarding the CO2 canisters used to inflate the airbag. According to the regulations (IATA Regulations – see download), you are authorised to fly with 2 gas canisters (the volume must be less than 200cc), in the cabin or in the hold. Even if the regulations allow it, it is possible that the security service or the airline refuses to let you board with it. We strongly recommend that you print the “IATA Regulations” and show this document to the security service or the airline during the control if they ask for more explanations. In any case, it is the airport security service and the airline that will make the final decision whether or not to accept the airbag on board.

Often each airline will have their own advice pages online, it is worth printing these out also as supplementary documentation.
