I'd been looking for another very bright taillight that I could easily transfer between bikes. At first I was hesitant about the Hotshot because reviews of its big brother mentioned how narrowly focused the beam was. I wanted a beam that could be easily seen off-axis; actually something that would be hard to ignore while riding Milwaukee-area roads. The hotshot micro is great for a number of reasons: First, it's bright (I mean, you don't want to look at it straight on at close range - it almost hurts). The horizontal beam angle is quite wide thanks to the lens - it's very visible from left or right of center. It has several flash/pulse settings (I use different ones depending on whether I'm riding day vs. night, and whether I run a second beam so that I have one flashing, and one steady). It runs for several hours in a non-steady mode, which for me is 2-3 rides. The rubber stretch strap and adjustable angle mount work on the frames I use and is very easy to move from one bike to another. I really like the micro-USB rechargable-ness of the light. The only drawback from my perspective is that it doesn't have a clip-mount for backpack or tool bag straps. Since I have another clip-on taillight (a NiteRider Solas, another great light), that wasn't on my criteria list. Note that the mount angle requires a screwdriver to adjust. I can't speak for water resistance as I haven't ridden with it in any downpours or through big puddles. The HS Micro does what I need it to, and I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it.Read full review

I am a fair-weather rider who rides infrequently at night, but I want to be safe when I do. This light fills my needs so that I can be seen with no problems. It seems to be of good quality, and is easy to mount and use. The modes are great, and runs very long on a charge. I think that is a good value in this price range. It is smaller than the average tail light

I am impressed with the brightness of this tail light. I keep it in blink mode, which seems to be the one that will really get the attention of autos coming up from behind. I also like the simple way it attaches to my bike. It allows you to mount the light to any shape or size seat post or seat stay. I've recharged the unit once so far, and it seems to charge up just fine. I'm very happy with this product.

This little bike is tail light really just packs a punch. It's super small and light weight and very bright. It's perfect for in town commuting at night. This light can also be seen from the sides which is a plus +. I would recommend this product any day. Great quality for the price. I have some experience with cyrgolite. I own both their "dart 200" head light and this Hotshot micro , and I haven't been disappointed yet.

I have these on four bikes. They are compact and fairly easy to use. I have not ridden the bikes long enough to run the battery down in one ride. I recommend.
