I've added a 3 position switch, see here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IZ5N5t-v990 I've had a couple of cars turn in front of me while on my bike. Fortunately I've been able to avoid them so far. You'd think a big bright headlight would get you seen, but it's almost invisible to the other cars. I bought these lights on ebay for just under $15 including shipping. Took me half an hour to hook them up and now I do feel a lot more visible. The lights can also be set to flash at the same time, but I feel this is more visible.
