GuardG3X USB Rechargeable Rear Bike Light by Apace – Powerful 6 Setting, 30 Super Bright LED Bicycle Tail Light Easily Clips On as Red Taillight for Optimum Cycling Safety - 12 Hour Run Time

Excellently effective .Can be fitted to seat post or rear carrier. A variety of fittings are supplied.Outstanding customer care service. I have since.bought the ApaceG3X Pro 100.

The original item failed to charge after it's first use; I contacted Apace with a full explanation; the following day I was informed by 'Mitch' at Apace that they would replace the unit ASAP.The new unit arrived 2 days later and (so far) works perfectly.It's a sad fact these days that such exemplary service is unusual.

First, Wasn’t clear here what the IPX rating is just says “Waterproof”Checking a few other product reviews on other platforms they stated IPX-5 on the packaging it states IPX-3 (see photo)Now neither are “Waterproof” but water resistant. Look up the IPX values to understand the difference in levels.The unit is well sealed aside from the USB port which is open. This is “Sealed” by a rear silicon cover which when attached to the bike should apply sufficient pressure to create a seal. Indeed this might be better that other types with a more accessible rubber cover as the pressure ensures it won’t be exposed. I’d be wary moving the unit though should it be wet as water could get in.Plenty of O-Rings for fitting and make it easy to move from bike to bike or remove to charge.Various flash/brightness settings and appears to have a memory function in that it remembers the last setting when turned on - which is great.Overall product/price wise. Pretty good.Longevity -time will tell. I tend to update such reviews if I consider it failed prematurely.May update:Changing to 5 stars.Light continues to work well and no issues in wet weather.Maybe I missed it in the instructions but it also has a low level battery warning. First a small LED flashes on the component board inside and the flash setting defaults to slow flash (Lowest battery draw) which can’t be changed until the device is recharged. I like this as it means I’m not unnecessarily recharging so increased device life span.

If you’re tight for a place to fit a rear light this is the model to buy, very versatile can fit almost anywhere.

The light was initially a bit tricky to switch on. However, after two month it will not switch on at all. Complete waste of money.

I have a new bike with an aero seat post. This fit perfectly like it was designed to. So, very happy with my purchase. In the house and in the dark. It's very bright. It's also got a good choice of rubber bands for a snug fit. Follow up on my review. Had this for a few months now but became faulty. So made contact with the company and you know what. Amazing. Straight on it. Right from the start, couldn’t do enough. Within a few days I had a new one. All sorted. Thanks to Mitch for excellent customer support.

With my saddle bag taking up most of the room on my seatpost, I picked up a pair of these to attach to the top of the seatstays instead. First thing to notice is that they are styled very almost identically to Cateye's Rapid X2 lights, but at half the price. I'm not sure of the actual specs of each light - I wouldn't be surprised if the Cateyes had higher capacity batteries and brighter LEDs - but given I just wanted something to slap on my bike for commuting, I don't think the difference would have warranted the extra price.The light contains two vertical strips of LEDs. I'm not sure what they're rated at, but I certainly wouldn't want them any brighter - in fact I probably wouldn't want to use the highest setting at night out of concern for any cyclists behind me (especially as I have two of them!). The package contains the light itself, a rubber / silicone gasket, multiple sizes of rings, and a little cloth carry-bag (a nice touch I guess, though something I could certainly live without). The unit seems to be sealed, with a port for the USB connector on the back. The rubber gasket sits on the back, forming a water-resistant seal. I've done a few rides in heavy rain without any issues. Charging is done via the micro-USB connector. The connector was ever so slightly misaligned on one of my units, so it was a little stiff to plug in. A red LED indicates that the battery is charging, changing to green once charging is complete. One feature that is lacking is a battery-indicator; I thought my lights had succumbed to water damage as they would turn off after a couple of minutes, however it transpired that the battery was low and had just enough power to flash for a bit before turning off.A push-button on the side cycles through the various modes. If I had to point out a flaw, it would be that you must cycle through all of the modes in order to turn it off, unlike my Cateye front light which can be powered off with a long-press. But at this price point it really is a minor quibble.It seems like the company might be quite new and is eager to establish a good foothold in the market. I've received a couple of emails containing comprehensive instructions (such as battery care etc.), so it seems like they certainly care about their product.I really can't fault this product. Very affordable, simple, and works great.

I purchased 2 Guard G3X rechargeable bike tail lights.Unfortunately one of them failed after a couple of trips out .I contacted Mitch at Apace customer services who promptly responded with an apology for the inconvenience and despatched a replacement light within a couple of days.Super service.Thanks Mitch!
