I saw these very minimally designed bike lights online. Maybe I got them because they nostalgically remind me of Lego blocks. Was hesitant to get them since they looked very small and wasn’t sure how much light they would be able to produce. But since they are LEDs, that should make me spottable on the road and I don’t plan to use the lights to shine my way on a very dark desolate street so I decided to give them a try. Plus it was a good deal for 19.90 euro for 2 lights.
The “installation” is an elastic snap. Basically just wrap the cable around your handlebar and seat post. The plastic body has grooves in all the right places so it will always have a good fit.
It’s a very simple design and keeps a low profile on your bike. It doesn’t stick out much except maybe for its color, but i think the bright color makes it fun.
Gave these lights a test in the dark, tail light, steady mode:
Headlight, steady mode, spotlight on wall 3ft-4ft away.
Headlight, steady mode, spotlight on wall about 8ft away
I really like them. They are small and light; easy to attach and stow. Also easy to forget and leave on your bike for someone else to detach and stow. They produce a substancial amount of light, at least for my needs. Some minor things: they aren’t marked so you have to turn them on to see if they’re a head or tail light and you have to get through 4 tiny screws on each light if you want to replace the batteries. Not biggies since I’m very happy with them. They should modify these things for night runners!
