I used a set for a while (purchased from Jim). It was a non-Rivendell
bike. They worked okay. Even in bad weather. The problem was
removing the wheel. The light has a tendency to smack into the
magnet. Makes re-mounting a wheel more of a chore. Especially in the
cold, in winter.
And on semi-horizontal drop-outs they are even more fiddly to install.
Still see them on a few bikes in the Twin Cities. Like Jim said, they
are a on and forget about "be seen" light. But have had no impulse to
add them to any current bike.
