HeroBeam® Bike Lights Double Set - Genuine Product Discontinued

I bought this mostly for the front lights. The rear lights and spoke lights are standard economy stuff and they work and look exactly as described. I have not used them much so I can't attest to longevity or battery life, etc. but the spoke light take standard batteries and should be no problem to keep working.The front lights are amazing. I bought this kit because we have a couple of bikes (or 8...who doesn't!!) but I ended up mounting both on the black ape hangars of my cruiser and it gives an excellent custom chopper look to it. The lights work great and light up the path like car head lights. I actually feel bad sometimes when approaching people coming the other way...but not that bad. Although, a dimming option would be cool. The mounts have held up fine so far and they are easy to get the lights into and out of making it easy to take then when parked. They are just like led flashlights, including wrist straps, so if you are going of the path or something, these work great for that and they take standard batteries so they are easy to charge and easy to bring extras although I have not had them run out of juice on me. The most I go is about a leisurely 12 mile round trip and I'm only usually in the dark for the second half...so about a half hour. Incidentally, I used these to create a strobe affect in a room on Halloween and they ran for 2 1/2 hours...no problem. I have not used them off road. I think I would pick something more purpose built for a mountain bike...these are a bit heavy for that and I'm not sure the mount would hold the lights in place. They are pretty easy to adjust just by twisting so I think if bouncing around, they might move. But, I can't verify that.Overall, couldn't be happier.

Only used a few times so far but works great! I use both flashlights with the mounts backwards as mention by others. I aim one low and one high. Pro tip: When I went to turn them on (the button is on the back) the pressure shot the flashlight out of it's mount and on to the road. Even after tightening the mounting screws it did it again, maybe because I have the mounts backwards? So now I take the straps and loop them together as a safety tether incase they slide out of the mounts they do not fall to ground. This works great and gives you peace of mind. The lights still work, so pretty durable. Also like that I can just carry extra batteries just in case. The rear tail light does it's job. I did not use the wheel lights but noticed my spokes on cross bike are farther apart than a normal bike so they won't fit. Those lights seem a little to much for me so I will let my daughter run those. So, far so good. I was impressed.

For starters, I bought these lights because they were, more or less, what I was looking for. Having been on the receiving end of a driver who claimed not to see me, I'm in favor of looking like a mobile disco as I make my way down the road. I put all six lights on my bike, which makes two head lights, two tail lights, and one light to spin around on each wheel.For just over three months, they have been working great, with surprisingly long battery life. To this point, I have only needed to replace a single battery in one of the tail lights, even though I often ride 10 miles or more per day, and often seven days a week.Today, while cleaning up in the garage, I noticed that something was out of order with one of the tail lights. It was blinking, and I can't imagine why. I do not leave them on after I park the bike. So, I went to switch it off. But now, it doesn't switch off. Rather, it switches from bright and blinking, to dim and blinking, but not off, or bright on, or dim on.At the moment, I simply unscrewed the back switch so the batteries will not be wasted. There is supposed to be a warranty with these, so perhaps a replacement switch can be sent.These are very nice lights, especially for the price. There are however a few personal adaptations you may wish to make. For starters, each of the wheel lights can easy be zip tied (through the holes provided) to the spoke, to insure that they stay in place. Also, regarding the headlights: you may find it preferable to reverse the mounts, so that the weight of the light is balanced over the handlebars, rather than installing them as shown in the picture. This is a very simple adjustment, and it cures the issue I had with the lights slipping, so as to point lower than I wanted, after hitting bumps in the road.I sure hope that a replacement switch can be sent. I have enjoyed these lights, as they make me quite noticeable to drivers whom I do not want to meet unexpectantly.
