Strobe lights………….do you think they are essential?

Hi,

while I am kitting my LSA out, I recently decided to install strobes (LED, together with positioning lights) on the wings plus an additional strobe at the rear.

Why?

1) I find aircraft with strobes turned on much easier to spot, air to air.
2) It looks nice! (cool, if you like).

Other people say it´s a waste of money / weight……….but I think the anti collision argument is valid.

I don´t know about the legislation where you fly, but given the choice--> would you install them?
