Yes I did. This one: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItemVersion&item=321830444133&view=all&tid=1484928303011
Tester was right, for a town bike it's fine in terms of light. From a visibility POV it works really well in a city environment. This is because there are loads of LEDs and the face is big. So while it's not going to light up the road you it stands out from a distance.
The only things I'd flag would be:
- it's big maybe 10-15cm long 10cm wide (I'll update correct size later)
- I'm not sure it's great in terms of battery. But I've just popped new batteries in so we'll see how they do.
- there is a screw lock fastening the opening flap. So if the batteries need changing a lot that will be a PITA.
- the battery slots in the battery case are too small for a AA* and big for a AAA so there might be a risk the batteries would jump about. I just used AAA and it seems to work. This hasn't been a problem yet and could be solved just by padding out the gaps.
*I've just re-read the description and it's meant to be AA.

Did you ever go with one of the ones you posted? Interested in trying it out on my bike.
