Great headlight

With this bike headlight you won't stand out, although it certainly will. This is done so that the road is visible. In earnest. It's like a car headlight. BE CAREFUL ABOUT THE ANGLE. POINT DOWN OR YOU WILL OVERCOME RIDERS BLIND, a very bad idea when you ride a bike. However, it does have two dimmer settings if you don't need as much light. I think the included hardware will work for anything on two wheels. Many different configurations are possible. Pairing the headlight with the taillight is really nice, but note that they have different charging cables. The taillight is a traditional mini-USB, but the headlight is a bit fancy - read the following carefully or you'll think you have a non-detachable cord. The charging cable that comes with the headlight has a USB-C end to plug into the headlight and the other end is a regular USB plug. The flashlight will not charge with USB C to USB C charging cable and charger! For example, if you have a newer Samsung phone, your phone's fast charge cable will fit the flashlight, but it WILL NOT CHARGE THE flashlight. Use the included cable and you can charge it with the same charger you use for your rear light or a regular USB power port. This is actually a great feature as it allows you to use a power bank that only has a traditional USB connector and no C connector if you need to bring some extra power with you. But the headlight has two connections! It also has a regular USB port. This isn't for charging the flashlight - it's for using the flashlight as a power bank to charge or power something else like your phone! How cool is that? So don't forget to take a charging cable with you on the go, the one for the headlight. You can just flip it over so the regular USB end goes toward the light and the USB-C end goes toward your Android phone, and voila, another hour of YouTube!
