Bought an 18 led red blinky for $13

Got it at Mills Fleet Farm in the auto dept. Two modes: steady and flash. Uses 4 AA's. Don't know how long the run times are. Size 4" x 6". Claims to be visible for over one mile and has a rubber seal for water resistance. I gotta figure out how to mount it on my rack, trunk or seatpost. It comes with a magnetic mount and a standup mount--it's meant to be used instead of flares.

IIRC you're talking about the Reallite or something very similar to it that I saw for sale at Meijer a year or two ago. I seem to remember that they do sell a seatpost mount separate from the light itself. I also heard that the light is relatively heavy, so you'd want to mount it to a rack or sturdy reflector holder if possible.

Get back to us with a manufacture and model number if you figure out how to mount it on a bicycle.

It's a Blazer magnetic emergency led light model C6350. I found a couple on google but the price is around $30, includes shipping. It is heavy with the attached magnets but I've removed them, hence lowering the weight.

How do you mount it on a bicycle?

I mounted a homemade bracket on the back of my rack. This bracket extends upward about 6 inches. It has one hole which matches one of the two screw holes on the back of the light. Originally the two magnets were mounted on the back of the light. Had to drill another hole in the bracket for the second screw. Works like a charm. The only drawback is that I need to remove the two screws to replace the batteries. I am still thinking about different methods/locations to mount the light.

Checked out the claim of one mile visibilty last night. I could still see the light after moving 1.1 miles from the light. Very bright! Went out and bought another light for $13! Took a look at the Tiger Accessory Group web site for the light. Couldn't find the light. Could they be discontinued? Hence the low price.

Mills has it in their flyer, so they must have a decent supply of them.
