Versatile
These are super easy to use high, visability, front or rear lights. The strap is possibly a little short for oversized handlebars but it’s OK on my seat post. I love that I can plug them in and don’t have to worry about batteries. He’s a pretty expensive compared to other rear lights, but hopefully they will be worth it and last. I haven’t had them long enough to rate the durability or battery life.

Compact, versatile, durable, bright.
This light is a terrific design. USB recharges for up to 6 hrs of run time. Set it for steady or flashing white or red light. Very compact, it’s mount can clip on various locations on a bike. I have one mounted to the rear of my bicycle helmet, set for red flash. Very light and highly visible , even in daytime. It’s not intended as a headlight, but will certainly help oncoming traffic notice you. This is an awesome product for cyclists.

Perfect minimalist blinky!
I really like these. I wanted something minimalist, yet bright, and these fit the bill. I use them on the front of my bike as a blinky, and they clearly draw the attention of drivers. The light wraps around with a rubber band, and sits in front of the bar, instead of being one of those unsightly cylindrical shaped lights that sit on a bulky mounting band on top of the bar. Since the light is in front of the bar, the you only need about a half inch of space to mount this. And I hardly even notice it when I ride, because it's not on top of the bar getting in the way. Another nice feature is that you can slightly adjust how the light sits in the band. Meaning, depending how you clip it to the band, the light can be "offset" to the left or right of the band. I have the light just to the left of my stem, and I clip it in so that it sits almost in the center of the bar. And vice versa for mounting on the other side. So you don't have to worry about the light getting in the way of hand placement on the bar. The light only lasts about 4-5 hours on blink mode I've found, but there is an indicator light that alerts you when the charge is getting low. Normally, I charge it after 2 rides, and it only takes a few hours to charge up.The only recommendations I'd make is to put some black electrical tape around the sides of the clear lens. It is a bit distracting since the light comes out the top of the lens otherwise, which gets annoying after a while. Also, the band is *really* stretched tight on my oversize bar (31.8mm), and I wonder how long the soft rubber will last. If it breaks within a year or so, I will downgrade this light, but at least it is on the bar snugly! It's the perfect minimalist, lightweight front blinky light for road cyclists! I haven't tested it as an actual night light, since I have a "real" light for that purpose, but using as a blinky, it's perfect!

Bright, noticeable from far away, lasts a long time, USB rechargeable.
I commute to and from work on my bicycle in San Francisco. When it gets dark or even during the day, this light is very noticeable from far away. I bought this pack of two because it's small, very bright, has different light settings, interchangeable b/t front/rear in case one breaks, and is USB rechargeable. It works well as a back light because cars and bicyclists from a distance can see me. As a front light, I know it won't illuminate the path in front of me. I bought this so that OTHERS can see me.One thing that I'm afraid of is that it may be TOO bright for other bicyclists at night on the 3-flash mode. That's why for the front light, I might point it downward to the ground. I can't fix the direction of the back light since it's attached to the back of my helmet.I bought this pack in 6/2017. It's 2/19/2019. One has broke because I have to keep hooking and unhooking them/bending the back in order to recharge them. I recharge them once a week. I turn the front on all the time. I turn the back on only at night. Sooner or later they would break. Once the back breaks, I won't trust gluing them on and wondering if it'll fall out when I really need it. So, I replaced it with a different set of lights.Overall, I like this set, but it might be a bit too bright.

Light weight lights for helmet or non-cylindrical mounting
Great lights and really bright.Has all the modes you want. Steady and flashing white or red. Use these as a tail light and move them to the front of your main headlight battery dies.Flexible: their light weight means you can mount them in your helmet without making your neck sore. The rubber straps mount to awkward shapes like helmets or bike racks better than hard plastic mounts seen with other lights.Cons:Charging port isn't accessible unless you remove the light from the bike. Please move the micro USB port to one of the skinny sides.The rubber mount stretches a little when I remove the light from the bike. Coupled with the ratchet mechanism requiring I hold the clip and mount steady while I pull the light away from the frame, removal is two handed effort, and I worry about accidentally snapping the plastic clip one of these days that I'm not being patient enough.Battery life is about 3 days between charges for me. I'm used to 6 months of battery life in my Planet Bike SuperFlash Turbo (2xAAA). This is the trade-off for lights that are this lightweight, thin, yet bright. Mounting a SuperFlash Turbo onto the back of my helmet made my helmet want to tip back, whereas these lightweight lights were barely noticable. I'm glad the market has options to meet everyone's needs: heavier, long-lasting lights for bike mounted and featherlight helmet-mounted lights. The short battery life wouldn't be a pain if accessing the charging port wasn't a pain.I'm looking forward to the future of wireless charging where I can charge my 9 light setup (I'm not kidding) without plugging in a single cable.

The clip feels like it will break but to date it hasn't
The clip feels like it will break but to date it hasn't, just be careful with it. The lights are more than bright enough and the battery life is good on flashing mode

USB C all the things
Works very well to clip on the back of a tool pouch that sits under the seat. USB C would make it more convenient as fewer cables to have to hang around or risk losing.

Buy! Buy! Buy!
My 3rd 2fer. First one fell off my bike cause I mounted it on the seat storage bag and smashed. My fault. Decided I wanted to be safe this winter so I have bought a second one to mount on my seat post along with the other one I have. Great light!
