I just received this light set two days ago...and already it's made my bike rides SOOOOO much better!!! It's a little difficult to express how much safer I feel and how bright these things are!!! Be aware that the front headlight is MUCH smaller than you'll think it will be, BUT that turns out to be a tremendous positive. It's slightly smaller than a business card, and fits in your pocket easily if you go inside Starbucks and don't want to risk it being stolen off your bike. It's incredibly bright and has several modes to choose from. I use the "blinking" effect as it still illuminates the street ahead of me perfectly, but attracts more attention as it flashes versus just being "on". Same thing with the tail light. MUCH brighter than I thought it would be...and also has several modes. Again, I choose the flashing mode as I believe it catches people's attention. Drivers can't help but notice you!!! At 65 years old, and starting my bike riding journey again after about 10 years of not riding, I feel much safer, more secure, and more confident riding now. In light of the inherent danger of riding on the street with cars speeding past, it's comforting to know that at least now, I'm extremely visible. Not to mention that it's nice to light up your path very brightly in front of you.
Oh...I almost forgot. The kit also comes with a bell that will remind you of your childhood. Yes....I mounted it on my handlebar...and actually use it. It's quite loud. I use it to say hello to kids who wave hello as I ride past them, or to alert pedestrians that I'm approaching from behind if I'm riding on a sidewalk. It also came in handy yesterday as a car was starting to make a right turn as I was crossing the street when the light changed. He was looking to his left to make sure it was clear for him to continue his turn (meaning he was NOT looking at me!) I gave a couple thumb pushes and the bell caused him to turn his head and notice me. He stopped and had a panicked look on his face with his hands in the air apologizing to me. It possibly could have turned out much differently, but that little bell was loud enough to grab his attention, thankfully!!
I would have paid $100 for the peace of mind this light kit has provided, so to get it for less than $20 was a steal! They charge quickly too using the two USB-C cables that come with the set. How long the charge lasts I'm not sure of yet...but I only ride for about an hour a day, so I'll likely get 3-4 days worth before having to recharge (I'm guessing).
If you're on the fence regarding buying this kit...go ahead and get it! If you're like me, you're going to be thrilled with your decision!!! Happy (and safe) riding to all!
