Revainrating 3 out of 5

Free on poles. No instructions.

FIRST IMPRESSION: All headlights work well and are easy to fit. That's a good thing, because there is no trace of instructions in this box. The beep is shrill, but I probably won't use it often. The call is more discreet. Both devices are charged, I was ready for the night. The torx screws and mounting clip feel a little flimsy and the light is difficult to snap into place. I tightened them all the way, but they are a little loose on my '80's Schwinn Suburban handlebars. I think it's good for a flashlight, but this flashlight has a phone holder on top. The mount is tricky to use as you have to hold both sides against strong springs when you put your phone down. Once deployed it is very reliable and at least on my LG G8 the side buttons are not pressed or functions are broken. Unlike many dedicated phone holders, there are no elastic bands or straps. If the clip doesn't break, I'm sure my phone will be held securely. The spotlight has a narrower beam than my other light, but it's much brighter. The tail light/turn signal appears to be attached to your clothing as I haven't seen a way to mount it other than it's a function of some weird piece of rubber. I will update after playing with it. The front light has a row of LEDs that supposedly show the charge level. Haven't tried charging my phone with it yet, but it's an option. The downside is my phone is heavy in the front and the clamp on the stem isn't tight enough to hold it over bumps. Not even little ones. So I found myself turning it back all the time. I will try a few things to solve this problem. Probably a piece of tubing cut off in the collar. That's enough for a 3-mile night drive. Two stars deducted for the missing instructions and for the loose collar. However, neither is a deal breaker. I'm glad I bought it - so far.
