Review on Cygolite Dash Resistant Rechargeable Headlight by Luis Esquivel

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great light although easy to steal

Love this light (my other lights are an old Dash 350 so it's not as bright) this is my third - one on each bike and one to match was stolen from my bike when I left my bike unattended for a few minutes while peeking into the store. I can't fault the Cygolite for that though as it's clearly designed to be easy on and off the bike. 4 small LEDs produce great "visible" daylight and last a long time, 63 hours. . The flash of the main light (DayLightning) seems a bit too bright - maybe useful on busy roads to make your bike stand out. I ride on roads and bike lanes with little traffic so I don't want to blind other cyclists on the route. with this mode. At night I usually use the low or medium setting. I haven't had to use the High or Burst mode at night, but I haven't ridden it in the dark in the rain yet, so the brighter modes might come in handy. My previous Cygolite Dash was an older 350 lumen model so they aren't as bright - this one is noticeably brighter. Side vision is very limited, I wish it had more side lighting.

Pros
  • Happy so far
Cons
  • Upgradable
