Revolutionary Headlight for Bikers

I was a hesitant buyer but after using it, I'm impressed. It's a lightweight and well designed electronic. As my tests showed, I can keep cycling even in the dark without any worries. The only drawback is the price, which is a little expensive. Overall, it's a great investment for avid bikers who enjoy night cycling.

Pros
  • Increases visibility while cycling, making it safer for the rider and those around them.
Cons
  • Relatively expensive compared to other bike headlights on the market.

The battery life is terrible.

Garman Varia Radar Tail Light I've had it for 2 years now. Love it! I had a Maglite LED flashlight to light the way ahead. Sometimes I forgot to turn off the Maglite after driving home at night. The next morning it was still glowing with a bright light! So when I bought a new bike I decided to recreate the Varia rear radar light and treat myself to this front light. Discharges in 5 hours drive. That's ridiculous.

Pros
  • High intensity bike light for city and rough terrain use, daylight visible over 1 mile
Cons
  • Reliability

Does not work with Varia 515 taillight

This light does not work with Varia 515 Light taillight. The network is down. I've searched the internet for other devices that had this problem and I've done all sorts of crazy things to get two devices (UT800 and Varia515) to pair into a network. Not worth the headache as a semi-finished product. Doesn't Garmin test their products under multiple products with collaborators etc.? I use Light with Edge 830 and have also tried Edge 530. Same problems.

Pros
  • High intensity bike light for urban and off-road use, visible over 1 mile in daylight
Cons
  • Don't remember
