The FIRST light that I think is visible at all in the daylight is the 60 lumen one. Anything less than that (I think probably anything with a Dynohub is probably not putting out 60 lumens to the taillight?) are NOT daylight visible.
Even 60 is marginal IMO.
It's a lot of money, but so is getting hit. At this point having experienced the DS500, if I lost it, I'd immediately buy another.
I think all you accomplished from that review (tongue in cheek, for me only) is that I need a better light than my cygolight hotshot2.
I've always thought it was bright, but the visibility drops off dramatically off-axis. It looked positively dim in your setup.
Your lighting changes noticeably in the middle - the sky appears over cast for that one you said is the first one that was daylight visible.
Screw it, here comes my dinotte quad red.
