Reviews
I was cautiously optimistic since some of the reviewers questioned the durability of this light but I have been happy with it ever since. It seems solid although I haven't dropped it (helmets shouldn't be dropped in the first place). It holds a charge extremely well for such a small unit (lasts 4-5 days for about 2 hours/day before recharge is needed) and I feel like it gives an additional level of visibility and protection. I commute 32 miles a day and spend a lot of time on suburban roads so every bit helps. I use the blinking function every morning and at night in the winter.
This is a handy safety device that locks into a socket integrated into the back of some of Lazer's helmets, including the Vento. A socket on a velcro strap is included for mounting it on many other helmets, including Lazer's G1. Useful flash patterns, including motion-sensing on the daytime-flash option. And the control button has a clever flexible cover to keep the unit waterproof.
(1) For daytime use, brighter would be better, say 80 rather than 40 lumens. Replace the 4 10-lumen LED�s with 20-lumen ones? Flash patterns could be adjusted to avoid decrease in battery life.
(2) Lazer�s use of a magnetic charging connector (rather than the usual micro-USB-with-a-cover) is a clever way to make the unit waterproof. Unfortunately the connector button seems to be glued to the unit�s case. I had to get a replacement unit because the button came off. If the case had a slot that the button�s flange slid into before gluing, this would not happen.
So 4 stars until Version 2 comes out.
