Involvement:General (knows how to use it) - Ownership:1 week to 1 month
Pros:
Bright light, easily visible from 150 meters.
Cycles through modes in a useful way: blink = warn, red = stop, green = go, and then repeat for the next vehicle.
*DOES* stick to a vertical surface, so you can turn any lamp post into a warning beacon.
Still works after dropping it on a concrete floor.
Hands won't freeze to the stick when it's cold outside :)
Cons:
Internal LED stick bends after dropping, after that the light is less uniform. (Does not affect its use for signalling, though)
OtherThoughts:
Restarts its cycle when you change the batteries, beginning with OFF. This means you could use it with external power, without the risk of leaving it in the wrong mode; when you restore power, it will always be off.
Better than expected
