GearBrake experience?

I'm thinking about ordering/installing this gearbrake smart brake light module on my CB. Anyone here try it yet?

I am just not much of a fan of gimmicks. Way back in the day, the technique was taught to flash your brake light 3-4 times to alert traffic. Ride with your high beam on during the day (some of these are very bright now but were not 30 years ago). Ride defensively and have your bike under control.

I depress the rear brake or pull in the brake lever just enough to activate the brake light if I am slowing in traffic. This is just a gimmick but I guess if someone cannot train themselves to do these things, a gimmick is cool.

If you're riding canyons with your buddies, and just rolling on/off the throttle, and this thing is lighting up like the Fourth of Joo-lie constantly, it could be an issue. Like Chicken Little claiming the sky is falling.

What I see is few people seem to want to put the time into training, whether it be dirt riding, clinics, track days, or just a parking lot. They are happy to get some false confidence with yet another app.

Honestly, I have to say that after doing four days of rides, most in freeway and urban traffic (very usual for me anyway), I think of a track day as a nice relaxing day off.

Everyone is going the same direction, no driveways, usually very light traffic, no police to worry about, an ambulance on hand. And no brake lights.

Your assumptions are condescending, to say the least.
I flash my brake light when stopping, and when stopped when I see a car approaching in my mirrors. I keep my high beam on when I ride, unless I'm going through a tunnel, or approaching oncoming traffic at night. I ride defensively, and control my bike. I don't ride canyons, and I couldn't care less about your track days. I asked if anyone had any experience with the gearbrake. Apparently, you do not.
