That four4th light looks mental.
Not legal in the UK though, it's the green light that is the problem.
The things you can't do:
- Run blue lights if you're not an emergency service
- Run green lights if you're not a paramedic/medical doctor
- Put a red light facing forward
- Put anything other than a red light facing backwards
A green light, facing backwards, is a guaranteed fine.
That may be no issue on a country lane, during the day... but in London during the evening? I suspect it's a matter of time.
Nice disclaimer they have on their page though, and the relevant law is here:

The green light is optional, and for daytime it is apparently incredibly visible from a distance .
There are three modes, and each has two power settings, and the green on high during the day will give me peace of mind (probably pointlessly, the texting driver still won't be able to see it!)
The other modes are OK and legal for night time riding.
I know it is overkill, and I said the same when I first bought an Exposure Six pack, but I wouldn't be without that now! -

Reckon this applies to bikes?

I'll write it up when I have tested it.
Seems like a well made piece of kit, pretty well thought out.
