For Ramboamt, the website is http://www.brightasslights.com/

Aside from being crazy bright, they also have several flash patterns. I run with the highly visible "strobe twice then brake light on" mode. My only concern is it's not DOT-compliant, and some day I'll get a ticket for it. But I've seen cop bikes with the same light and flash mode. In the meantime, I'll remain easy to see for those behind me.
Thanks Mystic Traveler for the link.

I have had this brake light on my last two bikes and have had no problems. If you ride a lot at night, you may want to consider the gizmo that turns your rear directionals into running lights. Combined with that Bright *** tail light, a bike is a lot more visible.

Installed the BAL-1 on my bike today. I selected the flash twice and then stop light for traffic days. Cagers have no excuse now!
