Yes, I use the original Monkey Lights, so lots of attention-grabbing light action, and I get positive comments on them from drivers, pedestrians, and other cyclists every time I use them.
I get so much attention, in fact, that I don't always turn them on; sometimes I just want to have a quiet, introspective ride and not jabber-jaw with every Tom, Dick and Joe!
