Found this kayak light when I was browsing. It'd be cool if there is something similar to this for bike

Old-school self -- I use a USCG-approved life-vest Xenon strobe that uses One D-cell. It is zip-tied to my rear rack, facing aft. 50-60 flashes/minute.


My commute is on busy 55mph State highway, almost 12 miles each way. I ride within 4" of the fog line (white side line).

I did see a bike-commuter yesterday morning (right around sunrise) that had a very bright flashing LED headlight. I need to get one of those for the front, since right now I have nothing and people emerging from driveways or side streets tend not to see me -- they're looking for cars/trucks, not bikes!!!
