Default Flashing LED brakelight

Has anyone tried the Flashing, (strobe), LED light that replaces your existing brakelight ? It flashes when you apply the brakes and maintains a constant brake light, making your bike highly visable during a stop. It is a single bulb, not one of the LED strips. I am wondering if it is worth the $67, or if there are better products out there.

I thought about changing bulb in my tail light but ended up buying a Kuryakyn low profile smoked LED taillight. It is MUCH more noticeable than the stock light and looks a lot better.. I paid around $120 for it on ebay.

Got a buddy that has one in a SG, definitely works pretty well, not worth my 67 dollars though

Pretty pricey, but worth it. Check out brightasslights.com. I got one for Christmas and really like it. I don't get anyone tailgating me anymore.
