Please pardon the meta-question -- do you use these blinky fronts at night by themselves? Must be an acquired taste. I tried it, drove me absolutely bonkers.

I guess if you're blinking for extra visibility as icing on a lumen cake of MagicShine brilliance, the strobe effect is mitigated and less seizure-inducing. My little bit of experimentation is that I'd have to want to be seen pretty darn badly to blink in front at night. I've only used comfortably in fog, twilight, etc. with enough ambient lighting that I didn't feel I was at a disco.
