Review on 🚴 OTYTY Bike Tail Light with Turn Signals | USB Rechargeable, Ultra Bright LED Safety Warning Brake Rear Lights | Wireless Remote Control | 4 Modes | Waterproof | Suitable for Mountain Bike, Road Bicycle by Jerry Moody

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Works great with two devices on one remote control!

I recently added a rear hub e-bike conversion kit to my old MTB. Since then I've covered kilometers and more and more of them are in cars. I wanted front and rear lights with turn signals to improve my safety. I considered different solutions: electronic safety vests, safety gloves, safety helmets and different combinations of safety lights. I chose this set mainly because the price was great and the reviews were positive and suggested I could use them for their intended purpose. I watched a video with a guy who showed me how to hook up both lights to the same remote control. That's easy. Make sure the buttons on the remote control are lit. Then turn on the alarm unit by pressing and holding the button on the back. It should start blinking. Then press any button on the remote control. It should connect and the corresponding indicator on the device will light up! Repeat for another device. That's easy. It took around 15-30 minutes to fully charge the devices, so it looks like they had plenty of juice out of the box. Fixing it on the front was easy (still secured with 2 zip ties), but on the back it was a bit tricky. I have a rear shelf and pocket for the battery/other essentials. There is room in the post for a reflector and I attached the lights to it using the supplied mounting and fixing method for added security. The remote control is easily and securely attached to the steering wheel without additional tie straps. I've only had them for a day, but I've ridden about 30 miles in a major urban setting. They work great! They are bright enough to be seen in broad daylight. I set the device to flash while driving and simply signal left or right when needed. I got a few laughs/smiles of amusement and a few appreciative nods. It only helps to make your intentions clear and cars/pedestrians/cyclists will appreciate it or at least enjoy it! As long as it lasts I think it's a good investment for people who travel a lot. Buy two and use them as a front/back set. It's cheaper than any other set I've found!
