Bright light and durability

So far so good! Very bright! Robust construction. Impressed so far. I will definitely see at dawn and dusk. Will be updated after use.

Pros
  • Accurate battery status indicator tracks both charging progress and remaining charge.
Cons
  • There are defects

Excellent light, limited battery life at full brightness

On a full charge I only get about an hour and forty five minutes at max brightness. I bought a refurbished unit, so I may get what I paid for. The much-discussed trick of the lock/unlock function is definitely "operator error". I haven't had any problems since I stopped pushing the button in anger. In terms of waterproofing, I've made several trips to Florida during rainstorms with no issues. Light and Motion has been my favorite dive light brand for decades.

Pros
  • Powerful 500 lumen light output in a durable and lightweight design.
Cons
  • Fits

Terrible UI, no helpdesk

Had a Prime Day Sale on the highly acclaimed Light & Motion Vis 500, low enough that I could replace the much used (and now worn out) Blitzu Gator on a trio. Most of my complaints about flashlights are usually related to the mount, so I was very impressed when the mount came with a rubber strap that was easy to remove and attach and a fantastic retaining pin that was easy to use. Once installed the mount was solid and worked great. The actual work with the light was horrible. Much can beโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Excellent daytime security with SafePulse.
Cons
  • Modern

NOT difficult to use

I bought a Light & Motion Urban 500 and received this newer model instead. Apparently they renamed Urban to Vis. Relax! I have four L&M Urban/Vis headlights in total and they are all amazing. I had an Urban 700 that broke after a few years of heavy use so I'm a 4 out of 5 overall and I was pretty happy with the 5th. It didn't last as long as I was hoping, but still longer than most other lights I've owned in 30 years of cycling. In fact, I still use the oldest one regularly. Is he at least 7-8โ€ฆ

Pros
  • Powerful position lights for traffic safety.
Cons
  • Not bad, but...
