Like I've said before, if someone hits me, they're aiming.
Presumably you are aware that the Spokelit must be activated. When sold, it is in test mode, and will only stay on for less than about one minute. To activate you need to hold the on switch for about 10 seconds until it starts flashing quickly. There is a yellow sticker on the package that explains it. I myself didn't read the sticker at first and had that problem.

My morning ride yesterday ended in daylight and since it was my first ride with the Spokelit, I forgot to turn it off, and exhausted the battery ;-(

My motto is make myself as visible as possible and assume nobody sees me.
