Here for rides.
I've tried searching but couldn't craft a good enough search string to find anything worth finding....
Back lights. Super duper bright ones. In this instance a seatstay mounted Smart 7 LED Polaris and a Smart 1/2 Watt Lunar, one atop the other, but that is not important.
Any methods/science/geometry for aliginging them for maximimum effect/visibility to car drivers? I'm thinking along the lines of
"measure 1m off the floor against a wall, mark a vertical line and horizontal line atop it like a T, with your bike lamp 5m from the said wall and perpendicular to it you want the body of the lamp light to hit that the intersection of the T."
I want to be visible aways off, especially in daylight, but I don't want to end up "under the radar" closer up.
Over to you.....
Edit: changed chainstay to seatstay. my bads.
