better ones out there for the money – shoebox36 – New York City
I agree with previous reviewers that this light doesn’t mount securely. I was riding my bike around 15mph when I hit a bump and it fell off and got smashed. The light actually fell off several times before that even during slow city riding.
Also, the light itself is too dim even for commuter riding. The light cast by this has a very narrow range. Any time of night riding outside of well lit city streets is not possible, and even in city streets the light source is relatively dim so you’ll be overshadowed by all the surrounding light. There are some much better lights for just a tad extra $.
Great light…until it gets wet – PhillySW – Philadelphia, PA
I’ve used this particular light for several years, though I’ve gone through a few of them. With new batteries in, the light is bright and visible for at least a city block. It works great…until you get stuck in the rain. Light rain won’t cause a problem, but if it’s heavy at all, this light will go berserk. Even if you take it apart and dry it out, it’s done for. After riding in the rain, I would walk out to my bike in the morning to find that the light turned on by itself and had been blinking (and wasting batteries) all night. Other times, when I needed to turn the light on, it wouldn’t turn on, even with new batteries.
So if you plan to use this only in dry conditions, go for it–it’s a great light. But if you bike in all weather conditions like I do, look elsewhere.
24 Hours – A. Casey – New York, NY United States
I received this light last Wednesday, rode home from work that night, and while riding back to work the next morning (after about 10 miles and less than a day of life) the light joined the ranks of the other suicide jumpers people have apparently encountered with this model, popping off the bracket while riding probably 12mph down a smooth road. Slightly frustrating.
The design overall is also far inferior to that of the 3LED Beamer, which I’d had previously but was stolen. The Beamer is most definitely worth the bit of extra money.
Light committed suicide – George Pearson – Las Cruces, NM USA
I got myself a pretty new bike, so I wanted a pretty new headlight. This fit my fancy. However, after a short time of riding the light popped off its mount. I thought I might have put it on incorrectly, so I carefully returned the light to its mount. However, on my usual commute the light came flying off and fell to the ground in many pieces. I haven’t gotten more than about 50 miles on this bike with the light in place. Since a light that won’t stay on the handlebars is worthless, I’m giving this product the lowest rating. Now I need to shop for a new light, or maybe just put back the old 2-C battery light from my old bike that stayed in place for thousands of miles.
