I really want the Pac-Man wheel lights.

I don't think the monkey lights are worth it. It's just another fragile weight on your bike; and while it'll help you get noticed, drivers looking at your pacman projection will cause them to be distracted. That Bright bike kit is something I'm considering, my red bike will be awesome with banana yellow stripes.

Very nice. I like the Pac-man one too. I don't think it would be dangerous. I think traffic would stop just to get a better look, thereby giving god-like road status to the owner of this system.

The Pac-Man lights ... incredible!

I wonder how many drivers would even notice.

I like the vest that shows your speed

I like the Pac-Man lights, but the system is probably too fiddly and fragile for serious commuting. The Down Low Glow is probably about the flashiest I'd want to go. Even that is dubious.

I have been using the DLG now for almost two years now. I like it. I feel that it increases my side visibility dramatically. I am considering getting some Bike Brights as well.

I have the SpokePOV on my cruiser bike. You want to buy two or three kits if you get it; with just one the wheel is so unbalanced you feel like you're going to get wheel hop. Bombing down my local hill at 35 mph with only one on the front wheel felt pretty unsafe. Plus, with two, the image is stable at lower speeds.
