Has anyone come across light tests for SON rear lights? Ideally in-the-dark photos, similar to what you get to show front-light beam patterns/throw etc.
I'm using the SON seatpost light and am a bit dissapointed with the output. It's angled correctly and such, but doesn't really cast much light on the road compared to the Exposure Redeye I've used previously.
Obviously the beam shape is going to be different but the SON just seems underwhelming. Trying to understand if it's just a bit pants, or not designed to throw light down, as well directly back from the light. Figured I'd start by looking for something online before asking random drivers "is this bright enough"...
