Whoa, can of beans here. Most of my commute is on streets and such, maybe 15 miutes out of 75 on the minute man BIKE path. My main concern is my safety. Anyone else get to pedal with m******* drivers? Like nowhere else, really. So the minewt 150 in blink mode is really bright, like 150 feet away lighting up houses and street signs. I could put that on low for the mup sections. Too many lights could cause an accident? Please explain. Until all the users have something lit or reflective, I will continue to use what I got. Dogs and walkers appear out of nowhere, bikers with zero lights or reflectors, and such. I find helmet lights great for getting drivers attention when they think about pulling out in front of you. Also for seeing where you need to go in complete darkness, before your handlebar is turned. A bar and helmet light are better for night depth perception too.
