I know about the solid light requirement in Germany. (No one was talking about buying a light in Germany either. Heck, there's no indication that anybody was even planning on riding in Germany at night.)
If you go to Germany with your flashing light, you can use the solid mode.
(The flashing Magnic might not have a solid mode but it's an unusual/uncommon light and I was talking about battery lights anyway. Solid-only dynamo lights might be common since many popular ones are made/sold in Germany. In the US, it would be hard to find a flashing light that didn't also have a solid mode.)
The following makes no sense:
But this was my point: They are NOT LEGAL to be sold in Germany with a flashing mode. It goes beyond whether they are used that way or not.
