I use the same light, but have been told that even at the lowest setting it can be a nuissance during night group rides. Aside from that, it's a great light. Super bright.

I would rather be a nuisance, than a ghost.

Agreed. I just reach back and tilt it down if I'm not on the back. When I rotate to the back, I tilt it back up. Pretty easy to do and a very good light. Especially for the price.

I don't even adjust it. I keep it as is.

I can't see you at all, unless I might have to Photoshop those photos

Separate the pictures', with a caption for each one. Otherwise, They all look like one vertically elongated picture.

You can tell if you click, but the montage effect is neato.

Dinotte 400R for me. I doubt I will ever use a rear light besides a Dinotte. The really are the brightest thing out there. I have personally seen one from a measured mile away in broad daylight during the Dallas ATAXIA ride. I cannot think of another tail light that is bright enough to see in broad daylight even at long distance.
