I scored a RR crossing 8" red traffic barricade light with a 1/2" wide reflective band around the outside recently. I will install it on my rear rack with a 3 watt bulb inside and an in-line vibrator switch to make it blink. Hopefully people behind me will think," Oh My God! There is a 50 ton locomotive in front of me" and slow down.

Yep, scored. A car went through a down gate in Irvine, CA and the police just threw the gate arms into the brush near the road. Saw it on my commute home. It sat there for days. I recycled the light. The schredded fiberglass arms may still be there. I suppose I could blow $25 on a "superblink" but where is the fun in that.
Zero Enigma, I'll put up pixs one of there days. After I rig the 100 watt headlight.
