Review on 🚴 Cygolite Hotshot – Powerful 2 Watt Bike Taillight with 6 Modes – Adjustable Flash Speed – Compact & Water Resistant – USB Rechargeable – Ideal for Busy Roads by Mike Bigglesworth

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Good light but there are better options

Accidentally bought this flashlight while replacing my previous flashlight. I used a Cygolite battery for 3 years and lost it while riding on bumpy gravel. I bought this light 2W thought it was a replacement. It's not the same, turns out I had a Cygolite 150 Lumens instead. I ran two side by side and took the attached picture showing 2 watts on the left and 150 lumens on the right. The biggest difference for me is that the 150 lumen Fresnel lens spreads the light and gives much better coverage. The price difference is small, so I preferred 150 lumens and returned 2W.

Pros
  • Pleasant
