i've got mine set on the brightest tail light setting and when the brake is on, i have it set on the brightest setting with the quick flashing. it sure does keep the cars off my rear fender at stoplights, especially at night. awesome investment for safety, and it's got the cool factor too. i'm very impressed. yes julesdain, it is from the company bright *** lights. and that's where the b.a.l. comes from. i got mine at pigtrail harley for 200 bucks, and now regular taillights look boring.

I have them also. Run them with a headlight modulator. Great investment

Default Just Installed Bright *** Light

Darned if I didn't forget to get a photo or two on the Forum....I'm still dazzled by the BAL-2 tail and stop light. Played with all the different modes and now I'm still seeing RED.....

One image is Brakes on other image is just Tail light. Oh and I have the HD MoCo adapter for Turn signal brake lights.

Buds that I've shown the BAL-2 are blinded by the light. Wish BrightAssLights would make Super LED turn signal units for front and rear. Their products rock!!!

I have yet to see a photo that really shows them as bright as they are. They hurt your eyes if you stand back at the right angle and look into the brake lights. (The angle being the same as anyone following you in a car or on a motorcycle.) I keep my tail light at the middle setting with the brake light at the high setting with a burst of flash before turning solid bright. Cagers really do keep their distance. I'll tap the brakes in traffic if I think someone is getting a little close. They respond immediately by backing off. Worth every penny IMHO.

The 'secret' of shooting them seems to be (A) using fixed settings (obviously, as you can see a substantial difference in exposure between the two photos above) for comparison and (B) distance. 50 feet back is blinding at night. 5 feet back would blind your knees.

If the tail light is as bright just riding down the road without applying the brakes, how can anyone see the turn signal lights flashing from the rear. Looks like a bit of over-kill (f0r the price) but on the other-hand, we do a lot of that.
