You'd need to know the angle of visibility on the LEDs. Cheap LEDs might be bright viewed straight on but barely visible at an angle. Even their last picture on the website makes me question how noticeable the brake lights are to the car behind.

An interesting idea, but I'll pass. Too short, I like my boots a lot longer.

One idea I saw years ago was a fibre optic cable that you just shoved into your tail light, and if you attached the other end to your handlebars, you could see at a glance whether or not your tail light/brake light was working by the glow in the fibre optic.
