Switching lights on?

[fossyant]

I hope that you don't mind my small addendum.

Or a Magicshine MJ-818..........

That's some light! I'll have to start saving.

 

[jonny jeez]

Always on now. In the morning and late evenings the sun is low and so Lights are a must and, as it get very dark in the hour or so it takes me to get home I find it easier to leave them on in preparation

I think the dinotte is 240 lumens on full power, that's apparently 85. How comparable that is I don't know. That design shine makes the dinotte look like a smart superflash by comparison, i.e. a nothing light.

Is that a good thing?

IMO yes. It's only a very few drivers out of many, and usually only on the most poisonous flash mode setting. It encourages most drivers to stay that little bit further back due to the brightness.

That's great, thank you.
Have you had an incident where having the light on has assisted with a SMIDSY or are you hoping it would should the situation arise?

You can't tell.
