Knog Plus Front Bike Light - COB LED Bicycle Light - Bike Headlight Mounts on Handlebars, Front Forks, Helmet or Clips on Clothing - USB Rechargeable, Waterproof, Ultralight Cycling Safety Light,Black

by far the absolute best bike I’ve ever had! The quick magnetic amount makes them worth every penny! Battery life is tops, brightness, I can’t even look into them.

The media could not be loaded. Minimalist look and price, $25 for the set or $12.50 a piece. They stick into any standard USB port like the one on a laptop or printer, in a car, on a power strip, or many adaptors, which is nice because you never need a cable to recharge. I am satisfied with the brightness, they definitely make you more visible, but I hope they can up the brightness while retaining the same form factor in the version 2.0. Maybe to 50 lumens. Anyways for 12.50 I’m perfectly happy with these as is, everything else in this price range is nowhere near as sleek

I will attempt to convey why I like these lights so much before I get bored writing a winded review. First of all they have so many uses. I put the front one on my shoulder strap and the rear one obviously on the back of my Chrome or Blackstar Bags as a blinky to be seen. In the rear I use a Knog MOB Mr. Chips as a steady tail light on my seat post. This gives me the safety of being seen in the rear by a blinky as well as a solid light which some drivers process speed and distance better. I do the same in the front. I use a light with up to 1300 lumens and a blinky for the same reasons. These little lights are amazing for clipping to clothes, bags, bikes, scooters etc. It gives you tons of options whether you are walking your dog (which you can put one of these on), hiking, urban hiking, skating, riding a scooter you own or rent, or biking. It makes you visible and reduces your chances of playing stupid games and winning stupid prizes. Great looking lights that are a great size you can put into a pocket until you need them out and about.

Use the included bracket, or clip it onto anything. Tip: Slip a few O-Rings onto your seatpost, and you'll always have a convenient mounting point that's discreet and unobtrusive when not in use.Wondering if the magnetic mount is strong enough? I think so...if you hit something so hard that it knocks this loose, I think your taillamp will be the least of your concerns.Easy to charge (no cable). Several flashing modes, or use it in steady mode if you prefer. Aesthetically, I love how it almost disappears against a seat post (if the seatpost is black). You want the LEDs to stand out; you want the housing to be sleek.Would buy again without reservation. I haven't seen another product on the market that comes close.

Update: after just over a year, I can no longer use one of the bike mounts. The lights are both still working, but no way to use the taillight. I guess my seat post is just too big for the supplied O-rings, it's a 30.9mm Yuba Mundo. Both the big O-rings supplied have broken. Not only that, but one of the pegs that the O-rings clip to on the mounts has broken off. I could just run out and look for a similar O-ring at Ace or Home Depot except for the broken mount. So now I have a headlight on my handlebars and an unused taillight. I don't think I'm happy with paying for both and the set is useless after 13 months. I wouldn't buy them again. Original review follows.I like these lights. Easy to mount to handlebars or seatpost. Long edge must align with the bar it’s mounted to, can’t rotate it. Pretty decent runtime as long as it’s not full-time unblinking mode. My rear light came with the rubber button that switches it on installed badly, I managed to push the edge of it under the lens so it is waterproof. Since then, they survived a trip through the Maytag, so I guess it’s fixed. Should have returned, but I ride a bike because I hate waste, so I’m ok making them work. Still one star off for lack of QC and mount that won’t rotate 90°.

These are cool.I like that I can pop off the lights and take them home to charge while leaving the holders on the bike. The magnetic catch is very nice. I also like how they charge in a standard USB wall charger; I have one with two inputs that works perfectly.There is one thing I don’t like. The button to turn them on is on the face. It should be on the top. In the dark it’s hard to find the button visually and the tactile design is not made for easy manipulation. For a secure press, you are obliged to squeeze the button with your thumb. As a result I end up staring into the light source as I struggle to turn it on. The light is very bright and this results in blinding me, which is very disturbing. If the button were on the top it would be easy to squeeze the entire device without looking directly at it. There might be a reason for the button placement, maybe to avoid accidental presses, but I think the ergonomics should be improved.

The media could not be loaded. I bought the combo pack plus an additional rear tail light after I recently lost my 2nd Cygolite Hotshot Pro 150. I've now lost 2 of those fantastic lights on my rear rack mount midride and said I wouldn't buy another that is risk losing on my Cygolite Hot mount for rear bike racks.In comes these Knog lights. A friend of mine recommend them as we both rode the 150 mile GAP trail recently and he had no issues with these lights accidentally detaching from the magnetic mounts. While they don't have the same lumen rating as my old cygolites or as many features such as temo control for the flash/pluse they have 5 flash settings. I haven't tested my usage on a full charge but again my friend has these same ones and they last hours or over days of usage without needing a charge.There are no included instructions but the mounts have 2 different sizes of rubberized bands that can be used for the mounts or you can use the clip on the light unit itself for mounting and it's all easy to mount and operate.I really appreciate their simplicity, convenience reliability and that you're not paying more for another USB charging cable and extra fluff. The twin pack plus a single rear light cost me less than 1 of my Cygolites. So I'm confident while marginally less bright, they will keep me visible and this safe while riding in urban settings.
