These 680CR are similar to the 680 you bought, but are the easy to remove version using heat. Not sure where to by them. Most places I've contact only sell them in 48"x150' rolls which is way more than I need.
I think you'd be good with most any 3M reflective sheeting product. In general, white is the most reflective - the colored sheeting/tapes are less reflective. eBay and Amazon are good places to shop for this stuff. Most of the 3M product is sold in large rolls that cost $xxx-xxxx.

IMO, any reflective material is but a secondary safety measure to the necessary primaries - head and taillights. It's a good idea to run 2 taillights, in case one quits or falls off. I always mount my main taillight just below saddle, then another on the back of helmet (you'll have to jury-rig a mount with zip ties). Wearing white shirts helps too (lots of area). Or go full safety nerd with a safety vest. I have this one, it's real 3M Scotchlite and highly reflective. Many of the chinese safety vests barely reflect - they cheap out on the most critical component.
