I have owned a dozen tail lights and about 20 headlights over the past decade and this is the best deal for the money (not the best light set, but the best deal on a light set). The headlight is bright enough for limited riding as a headlight and you can see the road with it but if you ride at night all of the time you will want two of these or something brighter. I use mine to supplement day blinking with my Edelux 2 headlight.
There is a Bikepakmart BV blinking light set that was only $7.99 on their site last week (seems they doubled the price this week), but still only $10 from Amazon prime - this is just for the BV basic white front and red rear blinker. The set with the larger front headlamp type blinker is $17 on Amazon Prime.
