High Visibility Bike Taillight

The taillight is bright and has many different flashing/steady modes. The only criticism is that the battery drains quickly. This isn't too much of a problem as the battery charges via a micro USB connection.

Pros
  • Sport
Cons
  • Crumpled Packaging

Very faint in daylight

I leaned my bike against a pole and walked 50 and 100 feet from the light. Yes, if the driver is looking for the light, he will see it. This is to attract the attention of an inattentive driver. Completely insufficient. I will probably return it.

Pros
  • Sports and outdoor activities
Cons
  • Some little things

Bright light, terrible battery life

Battery life is very poor. In flashing mode I get a maximum of 2-3 hours of work. The documentation says it should work for 17 hours in this mode. The flashlight has a power button with a blue LED that turns red when the battery is low so you can see if it needs charging while disassembled. Unfortunately, the LED changes from blue to red shortly before the battery is empty. I recently drove with blue lights on for half an hour at the start of my trip and the lights were completely off andโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Taillights
Cons
  • Safety

Never stays on-: Cycling

We have never been able to get this to stay on for more than a few minutes. Apparently something was wrong with the switch, which is why it shut itself off. Cosmetically, the silver paint on the front of the lamp will wear off after a few days. We finally settled on the Bontrager Flare RT bike tail light, which has a longer run time (20 hours on a single charge), is bright, light, and has a fantastic mount. It costs about $20 more initially, but at least it works. I have a 25 year old Cateyeโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Accessory
Cons
  • Very expensive
