For some reason the pictures didn't upload to my post. It's a custom made solution that uses a basic horn (Amazon link). Then there's a 3D printed case that houses the charging circuit and battery.
There are lots of products available that offer a turn key solution of this, I just wanted to make my own.

Completely deflate the tire, push the bead in along a short section, pull out the part of the tube with the hole (if you know where it is). Patch it, push it back in and re-inflate.

- Custom Self Powered and Charging Horn
Very nice for getting car's attention. Custom 3d printed case that attaches to the front rack mounts. Charges with the USB port on the display. This took a while to figure out. It has a small 500mah battery that is kept topped off by the USB port using a small LiPo charging board. The button is wired to power the horn from the 3.7v nominal battery, which powers the horn. The horn is rated for 6V, so it's not as loud as it could be.
