I agree that they are very bright. IMHO the limited field of visibility is too much of a liability. It is not like an LED television where the picture quality is less when viewed from the side. The Knog Frog is invisible when you get more than a few degrees to the side from the direct line of sight. I even tried two per side on the fork and they were still not effective. You need to get back away from them at a distance where others will be viewing to understand. That is one small dot of light that is highly directional. If you can shed some light (pun intended) on how to make them more effective I would appreciate it. Until then IMHO, at the current price there are more cost effective ways to increase visibility.
