Haven't had this very long yet, but so far it's been very good. The beam has a strong central area with a lesser, wider spread of light. This works well for being able to see where you're going in completely dark areas, as well as being seen without dazzling traffic (if adjusted properly). From the side you don't see a lot of light - just a small dot from the bits of lens to on each side of the main one - better than nothing which is what you get on a lot of headlights. It is quite bright - I can believe it meets its specification. The whole thing seems to be plastic and is incredibly light weight and also a bit smaller than you might think from the picture. The switch is a proper "tact" switch with a rubber cover which bodes well for a long life. It's fairly easy to operate with gloves on. The rubber cover over the USB connector on the back fell off fairly quickly, but it's easy enough to push back on. It hasn't had a proper drenching yet to know how effective it is at keeping the rain out. The only thing I'm not so convinced of is the bracket's retaining clip. It holds the light OK, but you have to bend it quite a long way to release the light, and I'd be concerned that it will fatigue with use and eventually fail. In other respects the bracket is OK. Nothing special. I like the charging LED on the top which is red while charging and green when fully charged. It apparently goes red when the battery is low in use as well, but I haven't seen that yet. It would be interesting to know how much run-time there is left when it's at that point, but I don't want to let it get to that point to find out and be stuck without a light! You could presumably use a USB power bank to recharge it if you had to. Would I buy it again? On my experience so far, I think so.Read full review
