That is a bright one I tell you that..

There are two schools of thought here. The OP recommends and does a low mount. A lot of posters with way more experience and savvy then me, recommend the higher the rear light the better. As is a rear light on a helmet is better than a rear light mounted on the seatpost. The OP has their light mounted on fender and his intentions was not to have it in people's eye.

In a neutral perspective, a rear light is there for you to be "seen"..The proponents of the higher the light the better, are on the principle that it can be seen even over top of cars, IMO, good point. Whereas, the OP wants their light to be down away from drivers eye, that, IMO, might be defeating the purpose.

Again, that was a neutral comment, and I am sure this thread is back to life and well..
