flexible LED for backpack?

[Privateer]

I commute on my monster and almost always wear a backpack while doing so.  I want to make myself a little more visible to the Orange County texting-absorbed a-holes.

I wear this:


and was thinking I could insert some kind of LED tube in the MOLLE straps, powered by batteries.  I was imagining an upsidedown U with the ends in the far left/right straps, the U roughly following the contours of that pocket.

Unrelated, I'm also planning to add some reflective tape to my helmet, front and back.  Trying to address all angles of visibility that I can.

I thought it'd be pretty easy to find some kind of LED tube or flexible strip that would work but I can't seem to find anything online, any ideas?

You can just throw on a bicycle LED flasher.

Another option is to iron on some 3m reflective fabric.

the problem I have with EL Wire is it disapears as soon as light hits it...it has a tendancy to be washed out practically...L.E.D. is less probelmatic in this regard from my experience due to the light output...

I have an older version of this:

Lights up either a on steady or pulsing flash.

I also have a reflective safety triangle thingy that I clip to my pack as well.  I found it in a bicycle shop as well.
