I tried to mount one to a seat tube to shine under a rack. The light fit fine, but it wasn’t as visable as I would have liked.

One customer I recently spoke to had a larger seat post diameter and therefore his frame was too large for the band - worthwhile checking if your post is larger than 30mm or so!

Anyone used the SON rear light on seat tube instead of seat post? Any issues to be expected? Worrying that seat post positioning would limit the use of saddle bags. Appreciate the shorter wiring compared to the mudguard version, which is another alternative.
Tight clearances might prevent me wiring inside the guards which would result in ugly cabling, i guess.
Edit: Got the mudguard mounted SON taillight, and it seems to suit my needs more than enough. Wiring got sorted out using the rounded edges of GB 50mm fenders as a perfect, tight channel for SON coaxial cable. Just don´t know how well it hold the cable in the long run but it was tight to install.
