Comments about Planet Bike Superflash Stealth Rear Bike Light:
I am a big fan of the PB superflash lights. So much so that I keep replacing them when they burn out. I am a four-season bike commuter. Even with fenders, they get water and salt spray on them in the winter. The seal leaks a bit over time, the interior corrodes, and the switch stops working. The lights seldom last me more than a year. They are so energy efficient that I never have to replace the batteries more than once before replacing the light.
I use them in tandem - one on each side of the rear rack. Two is much more noticeable.
Great light, but it doesn't last forever. You can lightly caulk the seal to delay the inevitable.

Comments about Planet Bike Superflash Stealth Rear Bike Light:
I use this product during daylight on narrow, curvy mountain roads. Cars now go around me at greater distance than without it. Won't fit around eliptical seat posts.

Comments about Planet Bike Superflash Stealth Rear Bike Light:
All these Super Flash are a bargain. They are all I use. I can't tell the difference in brightness between the Stealth and the original but the white body and red lens of the original looked terrible on my black/silver/grey road bike and not so hot on my commuter. The black body/clean lens looks great on both my bikes and I'm still visible from blocks away.

Comments about Planet Bike Superflash Stealth Rear Bike Light:
Almost perfect. I have been stopped by police to give me the thumbs up, telling me how visible it was.
Not reliable under rain. It will shut off when it gets wet.

Comments about Planet Bike Superflash Stealth Rear Bike Light:
This is a nice rear bike light, I love the fact that the whole thing is clear so it doesn't stand out during the daytime, and another added benefit of the entire thing being clear is that cars can see you blinking from the side a little better, and not just from behind.
One thing I don't like is, if you're riding down the street and you want to turn the light on...you reach back & push the button that turns it on...there's no click, or switch, or anything that you can FEEL to know that you turned it on...unless you look behind you & see it blinking.

Comments about Planet Bike Superflash Stealth Rear Bike Light:
Used this for a year - purchased it in early Fall of 2009, used it the whole winter season, plus Spring and once again this Fall. Three times a week on a seven-mile night commute. Haven't changed the batteries yet.
Performance: BRIGHT!!! If I passed you, I'm sorry. Yes, it's quite annoying for people behind you. Which is a good thing right?! I see several commuters with this on their bicycle and I see them from several blocks away.
The design is pretty looking and it's durable. The switch isn't a simply button so you don't mistakenly turn it ON/OFF.
I ride a lot at night, and no ones has / makes better bicycle tail lights than these! Probably the BEST in the market!

Comments about Planet Bike Superflash Stealth Rear Bike Light:
This light and the original model are wonderfully attention-getting both day and night, remarkably lightweight and long-lasting, especially with lithium batteries, and extremely cheap compared to ultimate tailights like Dinotte.
The included mounts which let one attach the light in a variety of places, and the clip which can work on straps and clothing are superbly versatile.
In an unscientific test to compare SuperFlash models, I set up this light and the regular one (with red and white casing) next to each other during the day and at night and looked at them from a distance.
IMO it is possible the regular one is just a tiny bit brighter when flashing, but the stealth model seems a tad brighter on steady at night, and has colors that don't scream "steal me" when it's turned off.
So I wear the regular one on my helmet and keep this one on the bike, so that if I forget and leave the light unattended, it has a greater chance of being there later.
This is all-in-all a fantastic product, cheap enough to own more than one, and makes an excellent present.
(P.S. I use the two SuperFlashes when on a low bike below eye level and needing to be extra visible; otherwise I use one and carry the other as a spare--used them for years and never had one fail put prefer to have a backup, especially when commuting in traffic.)

Comments about Planet Bike Superflash Stealth Rear Bike Light:
I recommend these to everyone. They're MUCH more visible than most of the taillights on the market, convenient to move from bike mount to bag, and the batteries just last and last (and can be replaced with rechargeable AAAs when they finally die). If only I could find a headlight I was so pleased with at this price point!
