This, I don't know how many lumens it has (says 400 cd) is enough to be SEEN. Even decent for lighting the road, but there are better options. Link:

In my experience, those who don't see you with that light, won't see you with a much brighter headlight.

Also, for night riding, steady beam is better than a flashing one.
For daytime - I've only ever used blinking mode for daytime riding, so can't make a comparison. It does help somewhat. Not sure whether straight beam is better, or worse for daytime use.
