Great for a good price & regular use
The product is a great value for money. Placing the batteries is a bit tedious though the batteries do last long enough. I never have had any problems with either of them. Plenty of diff. rhythms/sequences for both the lights. The flexibility to use the Xenon Bulb or the LED's comes in quite handy.
I wish it would have included the batteries though. The headlamp needs 4 AA batteries while the tail lamp takes 2 AAA batteries.
I would definitely recommend it since it's adequate for regular use.

Not for kids that drop their bikes down
I purchased 3 of these for my 5 year old triplets.
2 are still intact. The other busted when the bike got dropped down to the ground. It's got a rubber insert that's supposed to help make it "hug" the bar when you tighten it on, but sometimes it wants to squeeze right out of there and then the light starts flipping around loose. I don't think you can get it tight enough with out this little thing. luckily we found the one tha popped out.
Other than that, it's a bright lite with lots of fancy light rythms.

Adequate Inexpensive light
This product produces adequate light for night riding on a fairly wide trail. On narrow off-road trails I do not think the beam is strong enough.
I have not used it on regular street situations because I do all my riding off the road. I have seen the other reviews about the difficulty of placing the batteries due to the awkward method of opening the case. I was mindful of that information when I first used my light, and really had no problem. The problem with the tail light coming apart on bumpy situations was also noted in previous reviews, and I put a small sliver of duct tape around the rear light case, and after several rides its still there.
Having to scroll through all of the lighting modes to shut the light down is annoying, but not critcal.
All in all this is a very adequate light for the price, and for folks who don't do a whole lot of night or dusk off road riding it is a great value.
