FANCYWING Accessory Backpack Direction Indicator Review

Bought for my son who goes to work just before sunrise and is very happy with his fit and looks. I highly recommend this product! I am including a picture of the product on his vest when he is not wearing it. In addition, his photo during an evening walk. Too bad the photo isn't better.

Very bright, works well and lasts a long time. I've attached it to my backpack with self-adhesive Velcro and ride to work and at night with more confidence. The only problem is the controller mount. It comes with zip ties, but if you try to use them without padding between the handlebar and the mount, it twists and turns during use. Very annoying, almost dangerous. Some rubber pads or trim between the mount and the handlebars fix that. Good buy, there will be another one

Bought for my wife to go cycling with one of these child trailers. She loves it! It is bright and can be seen from afar. It makes her feel safer. Oh, if she comes out and rides around for a bit. It's very light and the battery lasts a long time and I haven't charged it a second time yet. I just attached it to the back of the trailer and it drove away. The remote works great, it mounts to the steering wheel very easily and even comes with the hardware to do it. You know what they say: happy…

Every night on my 3rd shift I ride my bike to work. After several incidents even with the police, I decided to buy this to communicate better with traffic. Be careful with the remote control as the clip breaks easily. I had to glue it together with glue to keep it from coming off my aero bars. It would be even better if the front turn signals were on top straps that could be draped over the shoulders. The battery seems to last forever. Every 2 weeks to be on the safe side. But that hasn't let…

I've been using it every day for almost a year and it's really great. It doesn't need to be adjusted, and the liner is very easy to attach and remove from the backpack. It also allows you to access the backpack from the top without removing it, so you don't have to take it out very often. The battery life is great and charging your tablet from a USB port is a great idea. Maybe in the future it will be possible to implement this on the remote control. Recently I had a problem with pairing (the…

Super cool I wish the vest had a normal zipper (see photo). I'll see if I can sew it onto my safety vest. Also, I took it apart in case any of you guys are interested in looking inside. I like USB charging. Update 05/19/2020 I bought a second one to replace the one that broke in an accident. The remote control and the device still work, but some lights are missing. Since I had 2 devices, I wanted to see if I could control two backpacks with one remote. I was told it was impossible, but it…

The remote worked well after a few clicks but stopped sending after a few moments. I loaded the bag. Tries to do what the manual says for the resync/learn function (code matching). It makes no sense. I've also tried another way that people have found successful for syncing the remote control, but that didn't work either! Manually makes no sense. /OFF once until the self-test is complete (i.e. 7 groups of LEDs blink once), then release the left and right buttons. Finally, a function can be…

Bought this for my cycling enthusiast husband for Christmas. I wanted this to be a good addition to his cycling outfit as he often commutes to and from work in the dark. It didn't appear to be difficult to figure out, but I was upset that it came in a plain clear plastic bag with no instructions. Given the price, I thought it would be nice to at least have an instruction manual in the dedicated gift bag. The lights seem bright enough but the clips aren't very strong. My husband said he had to…

This is the most reliable turn signal system I have found for cycling. I turned down some bike-mounted options because they lacked reliability, couldn't hold a charge or pair with the included controller, or had a controller that couldn't be operated with full gloves. Though it's meant to be attached to a backpack, mine was strapped to Fox titanium body armor. It's detachable so I can still wash the jacket if it stinks, but it has enough straps to keep it in place even if a spill occurs. it…
