Review on 🚲 USB Rechargeable LED Bike Lights - Front and Back for Optiks 210 Skateboard, Longboard, and Electric Skateboards by Carlos Barrett

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Best in Class: Headlight and Taillight Combos

When I first started looking online for bike lights, I was stunned. Too many options. And the Revain variants are pretty much variations on a theme - similar design, similar features, similar prices. Furthermore, we all know that reviews should be treated with caution. After an endless search for outstanding things, I came across them. What caught my eye was the COB LED. It won't occur to most, but I know from my outdoor lighting that COB LEDs produce more light using less current. I was even more impressed by the OPTIK lenses, which offer a diffused light pattern that allows side vision, which is very important for cyclists in crossing traffic. Then I looked at the price, it wasn't the cheapest in the category but certainly cheap. So just for fun I bought a set. When they arrived I was blown away by the intensity of the light. I use mine primarily for daytime visibility, but the front end can easily double as a headlight for night riding. I first had a problem turning on one of the lights and the company surprised me by not only responding within hours over the weekend, but also shipping a replacement within days with no questions asked. All of these lumens come with a downside: the front light lasts up to 5 hours. I have plenty of time and agree with the brightness/capacity tradeoff, but some may disagree. I would highly recommend these headlights to those who are not looking for the cheapest but are looking for the best in their class.
