Review on πŸƒ Night Runner 270 Shoe Lights: Rechargeable Waterproof Battery Light for Runners, Dog Walking, Hiking by Doug Hook

Revainrating 1 out of 5

Mmm, not so much.

Received after falling early one morning while running in the dark. When I first used them I was very excited. I'm by no means a marathon runner, I run about an hour every other day. I charged them before first use. My run was exactly 59 minutes, they were easy to install and worked great. Today was the second time I've used them, a big disappointment. I replaced the laces with elastic ones, so I find the handle is not secure. As I ran, the right light came from my tennis shoes. I had to run back when I noticed about a quarter mile when I looked down and realized it was no longer on my boot. I had to run back and repeat my steps, and luckily I found him lying down. I turned it off, put it in my pocket and started running with just a flashlight, but after another 15 minutes the battery died. I stopped and checked the second one and as soon as I turned it on the battery died too! I've only used them twice in less than 2 hours and both devices are dead! I don't recommend them, I want them to work, stay and keep burning, but unfortunately they're not. I may have to wear a headlamp again, very disappointed. I literally tied them to my shoelaces to see if that would help with tomorrow's run. I didn't have to do this. I would refuse to buy them.

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Out of fashion
