Had mine for going on 4 years...max intensity...continuous flash. I also run a modulator. So, I'm flashing all over the place. Big believer in both. No incidents of disgruntled cagers.

I believe this combo also makes me more visible from an angle as well.

Same here. BAL-1 and wiring kit on rear turn sigs setup as run/brake/turn. We have to run the red lenses in Texas. Love having more red lights on the rear when riding at night. BAL-1 is the best mod I've made. I highly recommend it.

BAL-3 on my FLHX for the last 2+ years, set at medium intensity and the four flash then steady brake pattern.
I notice people stay back further than before adding the BAL taillight. If I'm the last in line at a traffic light and I see someone coming up behind me, I'll let the tail light flash a few times by using the front brake lever.

Well worth the cost for the BAL taillight, it's a high quality product made in the USA.

Has anyone had anyone try to cut them off or "buzz" them for "blinding" them with their taillight?

Thought I'd ask to see if this is something I should expect.

Thanks!

Have had the lights on both my bikes for three years and have had no problems with the cages and fixin to install them on my wifes trike. they are expensive but well worth having.
