 Nice Lights at a Nice Price December 17, 2009

I've owned these lights for six weeks. I use them two or three times a week on a 3 mile commute. They're lightweight, work great, easy to clip on and remove from mounts, and include batteries [which haven't needed replacing]. An excellent value. Both lights twist to open and have removable cartridges for batteries.
The 5-led white headlight is very bright. It reflects off stops signs over a quarter-mile away. It has 3 modes: strobe [like the light on top of school buses], flash, and steady. The strobe mode is very attention grabbing. The steady mode is good for lighting your way. Light also shines through the clear ring just in front of the switch, giving visibility from the sides. The drawback is it can shine in your eyes. I just covered the top with a piece of electrical tape. The switch is a little temperamental, requiring a deliberate press. Mounts on handlebar with finger screw.
The red taillight has 3 rear and 2 side facing led lights. It has four modes: flashing, sequential outer to middle, sequential middle to outer, and steady. It is also very bright. I can't attest to how far it is visible from the rear, but I haven't been run over yet [knock on wood]. The switch works better than the one on the headlight. Mounts on seatpost, requires screwdriver. The square part of the light that fits into the mount popped off the first time I installed it. Apparently it hadn't been glued properly. I reattached it with Krazy glue and have had no more problems.

Great light combo. I was not sure on buying it because some had said they had problems with the buttons. But I found no problems. This is a must have because of the strobe effect. Almost like a cop car strobe. Will get you noticed also has a slower flash mode for those people who don't do well with quick flashing lights. Also a bright solid on. The rear light works great too perfect size and great product for the price. Must buy, I will get extras for around the house.
Great light set April 23, 2010

I was more than pleased with the light set I got when I ordered this. I got the headlight and the taillight for my bicycle. I ride in an area that has traffic from two major highways, and I ride early in the morning, so I wanted to have lights for safety. I like that both have a "flash" feature, and both come off of the bike mountings, so you can use the headlight like a small flashlight if you need to. Installation was super simple, took it out of the pack and on the bike in less than 10 minutes. The longest part was deciding where to mount it. Very good buy, very good product.
Just about the only thing that would fit on my Schwinn Prelude road bike June 26, 2010

First of all the front light is very bright and very compact compared to my Bell light I have for my mountain bike. My drop down handlebars left no room to mount a light on the bar so I modified the front light's mounting hardware with a saw and drill to where it would fit on top of the center post that holds the bars and then used zip ties to fasten the modified plate down. The light's narrow width was the only reason this worked for me because there otherwise would not have been enough room for the thumb shifters to move.
The rear light that I received is amber-colored which was a surprise, but no big deal because it is also very bright and gets attention regardless of color.
I also love that they are really light and don't add too much weight to my fairly light bike.
One problem I had with the front light was that the red button kept coming off, so I put super glue around the edge that the button sits in and it has stayed ever since.
It's AWESOME!! May 27, 2010

I am in the military and currently deployed in Afghanistan. I managed to acquire a bicycle and was in need of some lights. After researching several products, I came to the conclusion that based on the reviews and price, this was the best choice. The headlight/taillight combo work great, easy to install, stays well put, clips on and off for safe keeping while not in use, I'd recommend it to anybody! Plenty of light too!
