Blackburn Mars 3.0 Rear Light with side LEDs--Cheaper than CatEye TL-DL100

A new LED tail light, with wide angle visibility, has been introduced
by Blackburn, the Mars 3.0 . No doubt this is a response to the success
of the Cateye LD1000.

The Mars 3.0 is only $13, versus $30 for the LD1000.

From: "http://www.blackburndesign.com/lights.html"

"Named after a bright red planet visible from afar, the Mars 3.0 has
seven superbright red LED's inside a sleek water resistant case. Lens
optics increase visible distance and side LED's provide 180 degree
safety-boosting visibility. 150 hour runtime flash mode. Batteries
included. Water resistant."

I've added this light to my web site, "http://bicyclelighting.com" in
the tail light section.

It's good to see more lighting manufacturers recognizing the importance
of solving the directional limitations of LED tail lights.
