Why not just use your high beam? EDIT*** I didnt read i jumped the gun i went back and read about the high beam thing. but next statement still stands.
Also If i cant see the driver in their mirrors I move.
I actually prefer to be heard before seen though.

Modulators or Profit?
Hi Guys, does anyone use a headlight modulator to be seen more. I was thinking of buying or making a headlight modulator. I was looking on the internet and a guy says that he can send the plans to make a modulator for your headlight for 10 bucks and the parts at Radio Shack will only cost another 10 bucks. What's up? They want 100 bucks for something that costs only 10 bucks to build. I'm not above giving someone money for a profit. I definitly want to be seen during the day. What kind of modulator is best or do you use?

I just leave the low beam on during the day and ride like every automobile is being driven by some pretentious a**hole/ditzy soccer mom that thinks their time is more valuable & need to beat me through every intersection than me being alive. High beam at night when cars aren't coming in the opposite direction & adjusted my light to the proper position for me to see.

As one of the "Gay" riders using a headlight modulator, let me clear up any misconceptions you macho riders may have. First off, they only work in high beam mode. You can turn it off by switching to low beam. (so I can choose when to be gay and when not to be) They have a sensor which diables them at night. I use it on bright sunny days, when I am riding in a heavily populated urban area. Here in Fla, loud pipes are not enough, since many of the Q-Tip drivers are deaf as fence posts. So enjoy your low visibility bike, and if anyone ever pulls out on you, as your flying through the air, comfort yourself with the knowlege that at least you never looked gay....
