I bought three of these taillights at Jitensha Studio and mounted two of them. I put one onto hammered Honjos, and the other on a P45. Both seem great. You end up bolting it on very close to one of the stays, so it seems really solid. It's a very lightweight little light and has the really nice feature of an auto mode, which uses a Light sensor and a motion sensor to decide when to turn on. I think that's pretty slick for $16. The model I have does not blink.
