A driver just pulled up to me: "Great visibility! You're one cyclist that's not going to get hit." Nice.It seems that the dissatisfied reviewers are speaking of the out-of-the-box quality of this light. I get that: the first light I purchased died within a week (headlight screw fell out; flasher function died). But that's what Amazon's return policy is for, although I'd recommend buying this at a merchant like REI since you can get a replacement faster, and without returning your existing purchase first. My replacement is holding up just fine months later.
I most love that it's a fixture on my helmet and I don't have to worry about removing lights from the bike every time I park.
I am thrilled that it's rechargeable and love the colleague techno geek admiration of my "USB helmet."
Both lights are very securely attached to the helmet, and are very easy to remove.
True 360-visibility; love the side strobes!
Cons?
- Quality control at the manufacturer seems to be an issue, but this product is worth the fuss.
- False sense of security: I feel super visible and am concerned that I am beginning to subconsciously feel invincible.
- There is plenty of opinion out there (German government, for one) that bicycles should not use rear strobe lights because drivers have a harder time gauging distance, and likely other factors. I prefer the strobe light because it more clearly differentiates you as a cyclist and the strobe is distinctive within urban settings where there are lots of red lights. I agree that since it is a controversial issue, it would be better to have a toggle switch on the light to give the user this option.
