    I like my reallite even though I've abused it to death, I think. The guarantee is almost worth the purchase price; if I send the pieces back, especially with a good story, it will be replaced. (Guarantee is effective against armies of killer bees, among other things.)

    I have the Blackburn Mars 3.0 and it's super bright - it also has side lights on it so that you can see me if you're coming up to an intersection. (Scroll down to see it or click on Mars 3.0)

    I also put a small light on my bag - one of the Firefly Supernovas from RoadID. It is really bright, and small enough to clip onto my bag.

    I ride a lot in the dark around here and it's scary on dark roads to not have bright enough rear lights, especially with how aggressive people drive around here. I almost hit a biker last night b/c he was dressed in all black and he did have a rear light, but it was so dim that at first looked like just a reflector until I looked over when I passed him and realized it was just a super dim light. Scary! I'm super cautious with bikers too, except when I don't see them, then I don't have enough time to react (and I was driving slowly too, probably around 30 mph coming up on him). On the same road, just about a half mile earlier there was a lady riding with super bright rear lights on both her bike and her bag and she lit up the road - it was great.

    TechAss Strobe

    I know a guy who has one of these
    http://www.angletechcycles.com/notsausage/techass.htm
    STP last year, he was the only person I could pick out in the throng of people - all day long. I don't know about night.
    I *think* the angletech source is still just the light and you have to go to an auto store or something and get a mount. So, I plan on ordering from Technical Associates when I get around to it.
