Amazing visibility in a small package. The RADBOT 1000's blinding 1-watt LED is identical to the lights used car brake lights, making you as visible as every other vehicle you're sharing the road with. If that wasn't enough, an advanced reflector is sure to grab attention and meets the stringent EU safety standards. Belt clip and mounting bracket for seatpost, seatstays or racks. 50 hour burn time (includes batteries). Three light modes.

I bought a Planet Bike Super Flash tail light several years ago as it was the brightest light you could get for the money. Portland Design Works has outdone the PBSF with a 1 watt LED (PBSF uses a 12 watt LED). Fortunately the Radbot and the PBSF use the same mounting bracket so they are interchangeable. I highly recommend getting this light, and possibly even getting a PBSF because it never hurts to have more lights and the different patterns from the two lights allow you to be seen better.

I mount this on my seat bag. This is by far the brightest light that I or any of the riding group has used or seen.

It only has the one LED bulb but you would never know. This is a must buy.

This thing works great, has great battery life, and is exceptionally visible on the road. The clip is also compatible with Planet Bike rear light (I upgraded from the Planet Bike Blinky). It turns onoff only after you hold the button for 2 seconds, so it doesn't It turn on or off accidentally while on your bike or while it's stowed in a backpack once you've taken it off. It comes off and clips in really easily to prevent theft.

I'm an avid commuter biker who rides at night in the winter months, and I feel much more comfortable on the road knowing I have this light. If $15 bucks is the difference between your life or a cheaper light, what will you buy?

I just bought this tail light for my bike. I am impressed with the power of this little led, it is amazingly bright with just one LED. Also I love the fact that it comes with clips for seatpost, rear fork and rack. I installed the one for racks on my cruiser bike rack and the seatpost clip on my road bike so I can easily switch between one and the other with no hassle. Also, unlike many other tail lights I had, this one has only 3 flashing modes and you can just switch off any time by pressing longer. This is a great advantage over the other irritating lights with 5 or 7 modes and you have to press the button multiple times to switch off. Very good product.

The product is very bright, ensuring i'm seen, & it's also super convenient, it will either mount or clip anywhere. will definitely recommend, as I won't need to buy another soon (they're very long lasting).
