Review on Enhance Safety with 2pcs LED Sports Armband ๐ŸŸข - Green Reflective Bracelet for Cycling, Jogging, and More! by Mike Newbill

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Appealing seller/seller! And hey, drying - that's how it works!

Update (03/09/18) So one experience that may help others is to let critical electronics dry out after most starts. It's a process that only takes a second but seems to be paying off and extending the life of my lights. Gently pull out the guts, remove the batteries and let them dry, that's the key! Here are some pictures. You don't have to remove the entire clear strip to be effective - in fact, it takes considerably longer to completely remove it, so don't do it. (There are two channels inside. One is right, the other is wrong.) Essentially, you're doing this like you're changing batteries - peel back the black flexible material to reveal the battery and electronics, pull everything in few out of inches, remove the battery ( batteries) and put in a dry place for a few hours, then reverse the process. Drying out the battery area kept my headlights 100% clean and not even rust, oxidation or other issues. After a couple of monsoons I've had three hour runs in the last 30 days. I need my gear to withstand the virtual immersion during runs, but it seems like it's up to me to let them recover intelligently. Hopefully the same as my legs and core after a long time. :-)Update (12/8/17) I've raised my rating from two to four stars. After contacting the company, they quickly sent another pair with minimal fuss. (By the way, they are marked "Type II" on the packaging and each use (2) CR2016 batteries instead of (1) CR2032. Just out of curiosity, I put vernier calipers on both and the thickness of (2) CR2016 batteries, the same like (1) CR2032 - who would have thought!?) The seller/supplier was 100% committed to solving the problem and was willing to help. You can not ask for more. My concern is that the design of these devices will fail again if they encounter moisture. Whether it's raining, snowing, dry weather, or wildfire, I'll sweat it out. If they last a year with just one battery change, I'll upgrade the rating to five stars. If they fall out again in five months, I'll bring them back to two. (11/29/17) 50%+ fail after five months - and the path to salvation is not so clear. One bandage failed in five months, the other functioned only sporadically. I REALLY want you to like it. I walk a lot at night. Often prepares for an upcoming marathon so can sometimes put in 8 or more hours a week. The item description says "One year warranty". Okay how are you? After a few minutes of chatting (with the order number not being passed from the submit form to the person in the chat) I'm redirected to the seller's storefront. There are many links and the path to the replacement element is not clear. I created an email after some other issues, "There was an error searching for orders from this seller" etc. and was told to wait 2 business days for SEE-ME to reply. It's an $8 purchase but a complete failure of 50%+ of my order in five months and I'm following that across the board. Cape? Will be updated with changes. I always worry when there is a mistake in the description of an item, in this case "security". And I've seen references to B.Seen and BEISEN etc. I understand that there are problems with the language etc. but.

Pros
  • Absolute Legend
Cons
  • High Price
