The blinky attached to your steat post often gets lost from view.
I put a zip tie around a couple of vents in the rear of my Giro helmet and then attached the blinky to the zip ties. You're right, a blinky belongs up higher so motorists can see it more easily. It's the same principle or reason that automobiles started putting the brake light up at the motorists eye level about fifteen years ago.
