Rapha, nice but a bit pricey?

I am looking at a really light and packable ultralight wind shell. Got a black Mavic Cosmic Pro jacket, and love it, but it's not reflective enough for dark winter or night time riding.
So I had a look at the brevet one in orange or yellow. Any experiences and/or alternatives?

Sportful hotpack ultralight, 50g, smaller than a tennis ball when compressed.

I did order a bright orange hotpack in the end. The ultralight seems to come in see through silver-ish only, and the extra 20g don't worry me all that much.
Also, I am quite happy with all my other sportful stuff, so happy to just give it a try at about AUD100 less than the rapha brevet jacket.
