I like passive solutions cause they don't put you completely at the mercy of batteries when touring. And if that stuff works good enough to keep motorists from hitting guardrails and construction barriers - its probably pretty visible.

Not a replacement for a headlight or tail-light but certainly will define a vertical shape.
