Yep - the superflash is the blinky I bought. It is really bright. Unfortunately I used it on a ride recently and did not have it clipped in tightly so I lost it. I went to my LBS and bought what I thought was a replacement - it was a tourch, it is not the same - it is quite a bit less bright. I will get another super flash when I need to place an online order, until then the tourch will do.
