  • How on earth can you ride with a flashing headlight? Enough to trigger epilepsy ... and you're not going to be able to detect irregularities and detritus in the road. Constant beam is the way to go IMO.

  • @TheVeloWeb Thanks for your comment, VeloWeb. You are right (the hyperbole notwithstanding) that the flashing light can be a pain at night. I normally do not use the flashing light after dark. I run the light steady after dark, and in strobe mode during the day. Thanks again for your comment.

  • With that kind of setup you are actually safer on the road on your bike at night than in the day. Most Cars will go around you like you're a backhoe or something.

  • I couldn't agree more. You're right that it draws more attention at night, however, it is very visible during the day as well. In fact, with my new setup, which you can see on my other Youtube video on bike lights, I'm pretty hard to miss, even in the daylight.

  • Why can't I buy these in England/

  • How many lumens does this tail light put out? trying find a nice tail light for about $200. Want be sure i get a nice one

  • LOL, you've just put me off the Dinotte rear, it's stupidly bright. :)

  • I use a DiNotte 400L in strobe mode during the day in bright Arizona sunshine. I've had bikers say they could see me from 1/2 mile away. I've also had car drivers come along side me, roll down their window and thank me for having such a bright light! The light is excellent and very well worth the price.

  • The point of the flashing light is to be seen and it isn't the ability to see. No one actually rides with flashers in the night, do they? It seems ridiculous. I have a Cygolyte 200 and I use it on flash mode only during daylight hours. Many people have commented to me that they are able to see me at 400 Meters and sometimes beyond. I also angle the beam down so as not to blind the oncoming driver.

  • Flashing lights make it hard to see anything if someone points it near your eyes. It's horrible here in the fall when people use those cheap POS flashers and when they get near, you can't seethe road or it's borders.

  • good music.
