Safety first... essential read
#4
I read this some years back and it explains well the effectiveness of flashing light. Unfortunately however I don't believe most cyclists with their annoying flashing lights really understand the reasoning for them,  I think they definitely started as a battery saving measure.



The flashing lights should by no means be a replacement for the solid state standard bicycle light,  the light which shows the bike to be a bike and also allows for speed and directional judgement for other road users including pedestrians. 

The flashing lights should be reasonably low down and pointing toward the road and not at oncoming drivers eyes.


Oh dear I've started lol  so I stop
