That's a great deal for less than twenty dollars.

This is a great deal for less than twenty dollars. I bought 6 of these light kits and charged them fully, then set the headlights to the brightest non-flickering setting and the taillights (red) to the lowest flashing setting (which is pretty bright). The LED indicator at the top of all 6 front lights started flashing (indicating a low battery) after about 1 hour 45 minutes - 1 hour 50 minutes, full brightness for the entire time, then dimmed for maybe 2 to 5 minutes. minutes and then provided a low light (probably enough to see maybe 10 feet) for about another 5 minutes before turning off. The taillights flashed at a constant brightness for at least 12 hours, then I left them unattended for about 6 hours, and when I came back only one of them continued to flash. All of this was indoors at 70F. In colder weather you will likely have less run time. Each kit comes with two charging cables which appear to be of good quality and are around 8 inches long. After the batteries were completely drained, they recharged using small iPhone chargers in about a couple of hours (I didn't really time it). It also charges well using the charger and charging cable (micro-USB) that came with my kids' Samsung Galaxy tablets, or with the micro-USB cable plugged into my laptop's USB port. The front light mount is pretty solid and holds up well. handlebar or stem and tilt it up and down by slightly loosening the screw in the center of the mounting square. Tilt is required for stem mount but not useful for handlebar mount. centered exactly where you want it when you mount it on the stem as it is not possible to tilt the light left or right on the handlebars which are even slightly tilted back towards the grips. The front light slides in and snaps securely with a plastic tab. It should push n down to release the light. The tail light mount isn't that reliable - the plastic hook that the rubber band attaches to is a little flimsy and flexible, and all 6 of mine have the plastic tab that should securely 'snap' the tail light into place is bent. too low and offers very little security, allowing the light to slide out without even pressing the latch. If you place the mount on the seatpost with the plastic tab facing up, it's definitely secure enough to ride on a paved or gravel road, but if you're using it on your MTB for a road ride to start a trail, you can turn off the lights and turn off before you hit a technical singletrack. The rear light can also be mounted on the back of my helmet, but the front mount is not suitable for a helmet. It would be nice if they provided a helmet mount for the front light.
