Great Farah!

I love this headlight! It's very easy to use and the soft rubber doesn't scratch my Trek bike's handlebars. I had a little idea how bright it would be. Anything that small at this price point with a single LED will typically display a dimmer light. Not so! I turned it up to the max and instantly the whole street lit up in front of me. On high settings it was actually too bright for oncoming vehicles. I lowered it to the next level and it was fine. If I had a problem, I would go with the odd USB connector (see photo). You remove the rubber stopper and a USB connector sticks out. The entire unit is then plugged into any USB charger. The problem is that it sits on top of the charger and since it's not flexible at all you need to have enough space around the charger to attach it. It's really a minor nitpick and I've had no problems with it. This can even be a plus as there is no cable to lose. If you have any doubts about buying this lamp for night driving on the road like I did, don't. You will be very happy with it. I!
