When you ride at night it is very important to be seen from all directions..
Nearly 70% of all nighttime Bicycle-Car collisions are due to inadequate side visibility (see http://www.johnforester.com/Articles/Lights/cpscreq.htm);That’s a frightening statistic 70%, yet front and rear regulatory bicycle lights are designed to and required to only point / illuminate in a forward and backward direction…
A fellow cycler friend of mine introduced me to the Fibre Flare Range (www.fibreflare.com).
Fibre Flare gives you 360 degree visibility.
I was very impressed with the enhanced visibility their products. The Ultra compact design allows for endless mounting options with no compromise on safety. Mount on seatposts, Helmets chainstays, headtubes, bags or clothing.
Here is some more info about their Helmet LED light http://fibreflare.com/blogs/news/113168325-bike-helmet-led-light
They have a youtube channel with a few videos where you can learn all about it...

I would love to hear your thoughts and feedback if any of you have heard or used them before as I'm seriously thinking of buying one...
