I'm only going to upgrade if enough people can support my hypothesis that daytime lights are important and that the basic ones I already have are not good enough.
Thank you again for providing those links, though. To me, they look kind of cheaply made. Have you actually seen or used either of those sets?
No offense taken. I'm sure they are
extremely cheap, going by the prices. So, have you learned what you wanted from 75 people with 82 different opinions?
I often use my lights on my ride home on the highway, particularly my tail light. Always in flash-flash-pulse mode, because a steady light would be near invisible in full daylight, but motion will catch drivers' attention (assuming they look up from their phones once in a while). I wear hi-viz shirts, so the light is just a see-me. HTH
