Can anyone recommend one? Needn't be super bright, but it has to be small and clip onto my clothing, rather than my bike. Fed up of replacing batteries or faffing with AAAs.
OK, it is super bright, but I'd recommend a Moon Shield 60 to anyone. Decent clothing clip, assuming you have something to clip it on to.

I'd recommend the Lezyne Zecto Rear Light. Has a rubber band to attach to seat post and can clip onto clothing.
Not as bright as the Moon but pretty dam bright nontheless. However not as pricey as the Moon Sheild.
I've been using the [url= http://www.summittosea.co.uk/zecto-drive-bicycle-light-by-lezyne.ir?cName=cycling-cycle-components-accessories-tools-lighting ]Lezyne Zecto[/url] since October, very happy with it.
I've got a zecto front light which is good.
What's the spread like on those? I've seen some super bright rear lights that are like spotlights - so they aren't particularly bright unless you are directly behind when they dazzle the crap out of unsuspecting cyclists following (yes Mr MTB-riding-up-Constitution-Hill-On-Thursday I'm talking about you 🙂 )
Did not like the Zecto actually. Bigger than I thought and didn't flash the way I wanted it to.
Didn't flash the way you wanted it to , blimey you're fussy aren't you . Don't you get about half a dozen different flash options with that light ?
I've had 3 Moon shields. They all go at the USB charging port if you dont run full mudguards and its wet.
Using a KNogg blinder now, the USB interface seems immensely better. Absolutely no side visibility though.
I've got Lezyne Zecto front light. Nice bit of kit. Plenty of modes nice simple fastening method. The rear is basically the same light with a red filter. I'd recommend it happily

No! All I want is rapid flashing. Slow flashing is no good, and I wasn't sure about the individual winking thing. I've no idea why Lezyne didn't include one. But maybe, if I can't find another option.
Moon Gem 3.0W anyone?
Knog blinder?
Just seen the Lezyne Zecto in a LBS, was very impressed, surprised you didn't like it.
I want rapid flashing, the Zecto didn't have it. I don't think slow flashing is much good for cycling.
Knog blinder looks lovely but does not appear to have a clip.
I don't think slow flashing is much good for cycling.
saccadic masking...
Meaning what.. that slow flashing is bad or good?
I'm guessing that slow flashing increases the length of time the light is off, therefore increasing the chances of not being seen as you;re more likely to fall into a saccade
Yes, some people are using one blink every second or so, which is ages - how are you supposed to track a moving object when it's off most of the time? And when there are several cyclists all with slow flashing you can't see a thing, it's just flashing lights everywhere. Add that on to the **** with 60 lumens shining in your eye and it's a recipe for disaster imo.
That's why I want a steady light on the bike, and a quick flasher on the body.
