Essential gear for night riding? (lemmy.world)

I know about the obvious stuff like a bright vest, blinking rear light and wearing light colored clothes but is there anything else that I need for when nightfall hits?

blinking rear light

Blinking lights are my pet-peeve with cyclists. Cars don't have blinking lights - neither should bikes.

Any blinking lights except indicator lights are often illegal in traffic.
