This morning, bright/light morning I saw a motorbike in the distance (circa 1mile)...as I got closer I realised it was a bicycle. The rear light was actually a exposure redeye rear light. Normally in daylight you wouldnt see a rear light THAT bright I thought.

I'm ordering one- £34 for that much visibility- lets face it, even in daylight drivers struggle to see us FFS! 😀

I've got one of the micro ones, that just plugs sticks in the back of the main light, and even that's very very bright.

Needs to be plugged into an exposure front light though, which pushes the price up a bit..

I know- searching to see if it can adapt/fit into my existing battery otherwise I am considering getting the front as well.

Its worth it IMO for that visibility.

I have one and they are very bright but they do need cabling along the length of the frame and they run the charge down for the main light in no time but for a half hour each way commute it's champion.
