Review on Bike and Scooter LED Front Headlight with Adamar Flashlight, Steering Wheel Phone Holder, and Horn - Black by Aneta Szymaska ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

My impression of the purchase is good, buy it.

For those who are going to buy - pay attention to some nuances, many of which are easily eliminated with straight hands))) 1. It is advisable to shorten the mounting screws by 1-1.5 cm - there is no point in such long studs if you often remove the lantern. 2. The gasket in the mount is thin - after tightening the fastener, the flashlight can turn on the steering wheel on a bump and with the risk of the phone slipping out. Exit - put any elastic pad 1-2 mm thick on both sides to be able to adjust the tightening. 3. Micro-USB is an outdated connector, now all devices have USB Type-C, and it is inconvenient to carry an additional cable with you. A trifle, but unpleasant. 4. In my opinion, it would be better to mount to the steering wheel on one fastener (on one side there is a loop). 5. The phone is fixed from three (actually - from two, the third is just an emphasis) sides. While the latches work well, but over time, I think they will weaken. I think for long trips you will need additional insurance against falling out. 6. You most likely won’t be able to insert the cable into the fixed phone - the sealing gum in the stop will interfere. The solution is simple - throw it away. 7. The cable connected to the phone overrides the power/control button. You can hardly press the button, but what prevented you from shifting the button or making it on the side (left and right) is not clear .

Pros
  • 1. A full-fledged flashlight, can be used separately. Remove the fastening latch - and you have a tourist lantern) 2. The phone clamp is strong enough. For city rides or dirt road trips without obvious potholes - that's it. 3. Minus point - for the "call". This is really terrible stuff.
Cons
  • At this price, no. And you can always complain. Although now I have discovered one drawback. Do not try to use the "call" (which is connected via micro-USB)! You run the risk of going under the article of the Criminal Code for manslaughter of someone from a broken heart. Or try it far in the field for the first time and immediately throw it away after the purchase suits you in general. The sound is unusual - no one will understand that this is a bicycle bell, and not a scarecrow of passers-by. If you use a phone, it's better to install some kind of call application on it, more humane and less frightening.
