Battery Replacement on Lights with Internal Li-Ion Batteries

I wear a styrofoam hat; I wear high-viz sometimes, and I use a bunch of different lights -- and even a DRL when its overcast or raining. So, I'm already half-way to believing. But when a study involving the safety benefits of a lame little hub-level blinky shows that it reduces solo daytime accidents by over 25%, that doesn't pass the smell test. Does the light improve wet-road grip? Braking power? Attention? Maybe the riders are just more vigilant being in a study group. I'm more vigilant when I know I'm being studied, particularly when I'm being studied by a cop.

You have to understand the difference between causation and correlation.
But there are legitimate reasons why solo accident rates also fall.

The key thing is to use accurate research, with control groups, even if
they can't be double-blind perfect studies. I have no personal or
financial interest in promoting any agenda, I just would like cyclists
to believe accurate research and choose to take reasonable steps to
increase safety. OTOH, Frank loves to promote fake "studies" while
dismissing peer-reviewed studies that don't happen to support his
agenda. He doesn't realize that this approach doesn't help his agenda
because no one takes those fake studies seriously.
