I have also used their tail blazer brake light that flashes your rear brake light on other bikes...that works very well also...but the signal minder is working out real well for me...it really gets everyones attention, especially approaching cross traffic...and just the extra running lights makes me feel so much safer in the dark, especially on the freeway...I also tap my brakes all the time in my truck...and thank you for your post, now that I clicked on your site I found a Triumph sweatshirt I have been wondering if anyone has, so I just placed an order...ride safe and everyone have a Happy Thanksgiving!
