I'm glad you guys chimed in on those small puny lights, I get tired of playing the bad cop. In a sea of car headlights in the city a motorist will never notice those teeny tiny lights, but they might notice you after they turn in front of you and bounce off their car. Todays world of motoring is a far cry from what it was 40 years ago, people back then would have noticed you, today with their brains distracted off their primary duty of driving that unless they see something very bright you will go unnoticed till it's too late. Get a brighter light if you want to stay around long enough to see your kids grow up.
