Favorite ways to light up your bike in the winter? (lemmy.ml)

Where I live, it'll soon be dark by 16:30. I have a good headlight and an ok taillight on my winter ride but I'd like to add some fun, funky lights for added visibility and lolz. There's a lot of crap out there especially on Amazon, what have you all had good experiences with?

It's not like people wouldn't notice.

Hopefully not too late to be noticed being all dark like that though. Seeing a biker in dark clothes like that while driving isn't the same as walking down the street and seeing the same thing. defensive riding is best

Except for the fact most vehicles come from directly in front or behind in which case these lights are practically useless.
