Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.

Customers find the bicycle light bright with multiple modes and highly visible from 360 degrees, with simple mounting options and good functionality. The battery life receives mixed feedback - while some say it lasts plenty long, others report it stops charging quickly. Durability and mount security are also mixed aspects, with some customers reporting it lasts about 2-1/2 hours and mounts securely, while others find it doesn't last long and the mount isn't secure enough.

Great safety accessory!

- Reviewed in the United States on October 7, 2025Man, what a great pulsating light (also has a static feature as well). The night rides have been even better knowing that people can see you now further out because of this very bright amber light (amber is gentle on the eyes compared to a true white, warm white or cool white light). I was able to attach this to an e-scooter which to me is highly important because they're already sort of dangerous and it's good to be well lit at night for others on foot, bike or car to see you.
Product is well-made as good as you can get. It was nicely packed too and that's a huge plus for me! I will purchase more just to have in case, but so far so good and I'm very happy with this light.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 26, 2022UPDATE of 11/29/22 I contacted the company and the OWNER answered my email. He welcomed my comments about charger cover and failure to charge (documented below). Sent me a brand new light, which I received today. Changed my rating to five stars because of the personal and kind attention by owner. Thanks, Aidan.
ORIGINAL COMMENTS FOLLOW Like: Amber light is visible, although not brightly, it the daytime; gets attention if you're looking. Very bright at dusk or night. Very long battery life (a week's worth of rides, maybe 15 hours++). Solid construction. Can be charged (as from a power-pack) and operated at the same time, but long battery life probably makes this unnecessary.
Dislike: The charge port cover failed (separated) the first time it was opened, thus negating any water resistance. The cover has no retention stub/knob at the attachment end that fits into the light body. I'm not ham-handed; the thing just fell out of its own accord, with no way to repair.
UPDATE of 9/12/22 The light will not recharge now. As another reviewer has stated, you have to hold the USB terminal in place in order for the light to charge. Not gonna do that. Unsatisfactory.
Because of these two failures (charge port cover and now the charge issue) I've changed my rating to one star from four. I leave one star because it did perform well for 9 months since I bought it.
- Reviewed in the United States on September 13, 2018I wanted something more than reflectors to let drivers know I was there when they came up on me from the side. This light does that perfectly. I am glad it is rechargeable. I like the different blinking/steady modes. I appreciate its ruggedness. (I haven't dropped it yet, but I think it would withstand any fall from bike height.) I also like the way it mounts - easy to install, easy to adjust, solid and secure while riding. It is also bright enough to be useful during the day. I would highly recommend this to a friend (if I had any that were bike riders).
Update after 1 year:
I still think this is a great light and it is working just fine, however, I deducted one star (5 ->4) because eventually the coating on the light (rubber of some sort?) started to break down and get sticky in warm weather. That is annoying. The stickiness is not bad (doesn't leave marks on my hands or on anything else) and when it is sitting on my bike, the stickiness doesn't make any difference. Just a minor complaint.
- Reviewed in the United States on June 28, 2025Very Well Built! This light is very sturdy, bit too the point that it adds noticeable weight to your bike (unless your competing) but you can tell that it is built to last! The amber, multiple adjustment flashing light is very visible, making me more visible. I should have purchased this when I first began riding almost three years ago! I highly recommend this USB rechargeable light!
- Reviewed in the United States on May 1, 2019If you ever ride in the evening hours, this is an essential safety tool that will exponentially increase your visibility to otherwise oblivious/negligent/distracted motor vehicle operators AND other cyclists.The media could not be loaded.
Installation is as easy as stretching a band around your bike frame. The unit is lightweight, low profile during the day, and the amber LEDs are extremely bright with projector/“fish eye” lenses on both sides. Holding down the single button for two seconds turns the unit on or off, and single presses cycle through three available strobe patterns and one mode for constant brightness.
I am so happy I found this - lighting on the side is equally important, and this product most definitely fits the bill. Buy it now! You’ll be happy you did.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 6, 2020I bought mine on Amazon in Dec. 2016 for $45. I thought the price was high but it was worth the safety. Now it's at a much better price of $25. The light is nice and bright. I use it in quick flashing mode, day and night.
My main disappointment is the battery life. As someone else wrote, it seems that there must be room in there for a bigger battery. When I saw that it now says it runs up to 36 hours, I figured that they had changed the battery size, but another review said that it was still inadequate.
Oh, one other minor problem--not all micro USB cables work with it. It needs one with an extra long plug.
- Reviewed in the United States on October 10, 2025i drove 20
feet and it fell off a little nervous to use their rubber strap now.. will use Zip ties
the light is good and bright. i use it for side lighting while on my e-bike

PierReviewed in Italy on July 21, 20225.0 out of 5 stars Banale ma geniale
Tempistica e servizio nella consegna ottimi
Luce banale ma geniale perché sono gli unici ad aver pensato ad una luce arancione (quella che per legge identifica la parte laterale dei mezzi in strada) per bicicletta, funziona bene ed è molto visibile, se vogliamo fare i pignoli suggerirei di avere una modalità luce fissa con luminosità alta (come è adesso) ed una con luminosità bassa. Durata della batteria non ancora testata (la userò per molte più ore in inverno)

XYPBReviewed in Mexico on December 6, 20235.0 out of 5 stars Buena luz lateral
Lo que mas me gusta es que con un solo boton prendes ambos lados (esto ahora tiempo al tener que prender las demas luces. Los diferentes modos son interesantes y se adaptan a cualquier bicicleta.
SeanusReviewed in the United Kingdom on July 19, 20175.0 out of 5 stars A must have
After being knocked off my bike on a roundabout by a car that didn't see me, I can confirm that it hurts. A lot.
Before I went anywhere on my bike again I ordered this light - and I now wouldn't go out without it on, even in bright daylight. It has 4 settings:
* bright on constantly
* bright flashing
* slightly dimmer constant
* slightly dimmer flashing
On its bright settings it is bright enough to be noticed even during the day. It seems pretty well made, and each charge (via USB) lasts me quite a few rides. The mounting clip holds it quite firmly, and I have no concerns about it falling out. The mounting clip in turn is held to the bike with a rubber belt - if you have an oversize tube frame then you might need cable ties as another reviewer mentions, although on my bikes I can find a mount point quite easily. On that subject, it is also easy to move the light between bikes.
I may be biased because of my experience, but although this may seem expensive, it is worth it to feel safe on the road

Jul-TomtenReviewed in Sweden on November 29, 20224.0 out of 5 stars Ljus o kvalitet
Lampan ger bra sidoljus utan att blända eller störa trafiken. Bilister ser en mycket tidigare och påkörningsrisken bör minska. Lampan har en solid konstruktion med kvalitetskänsla. Fästet funkar för en fet MTB ram.
Återstår att se hur batteritiden är. Kanske blir det 5 stjärnor.
