Very impressed at brightness and features.
1 of 1 found this helpful I will say firstly that I am a commuter and some of my roads are lit with streetlights while others are very dark and unlit. I am surprised by this light's brightness for its size, it really puts out a lot of light on high compared to others I have used! It also has several modes, including a solid light with a bar of flashing leds (so that you always have a good solid light in front, I do not like the blinking only headlights because you always need to see ahead of you well.) There are cutouts at the side for side visibility and the power button lights up so you can easily find it in the dark (and blinks when charging, turning to a solid green when fully charged.) It also will keep on the last mode you were using when you turn it off, so that you don't have to cycle through all of the options to get to the one you use regularly.
The only drawback for me is the mounting attachment, but it is really only personal preference. I wish it had a solid, permanent bracket mounted with the light being removable to charge. It has a stretchy band holder (which helps it fit a variety of sizes and shapes of handlebar) but I am aftaid that after a long time of stretching to attach and unattach it may become stretched out and not as tight. Time will tell. But overall I am very pleased and would recommend this light, I feel it has made my commute safer and I also feel more visible to drivers with the extra flashing mode.

Fantastic lights, fantastic price!
I am very impressed at the quality of these lights, especially for the price! They are very bright with two speeds of flashing (I like the slower one myself, it reminds me of a car's hazard lights so maybe tells people to be cautious). Easy to attach and they stay put, the bands make them able to be mounted on a variety of frames and places. I put them on the seat stays (the two rails that angle down and back to the wheel) and the lights' bodies are actually angled so that when you have to mount them on a downward angle the faces are flat and more visible. They also have little side cutouts on the face plastic for side visibility (if yours do not go side to side just adjust the rotation with a screwdriver, the screw is on the back).
One thing to note: when you first get them open them up (they unscrew) and remove the paper that is separating the batteries to keep it from using up power during shipping/sitting in a warehouse. I tried to click on the first one and when it didn't come on I thought that they had sent me a defective one. When the second one didn't light I realized it was probably user error, haha!
