3 out of 5 stars Not quite what I expected.   September 6, 2008
  1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Well, I had expected to receive both the white AND the red light as displayed in the image, but was only shipped one light, the white one.
As for the ONE light I did get...

Pros:
-Very small and unobtrusive
-simple to install and "one size fits all"
-Two modes, blinking and steady, both of which are bright and visible to drivers at night.

Cons:

-Beam can not be adjusted or aimed, it's direction is entirely dependent on the angle of the bar you strap it to.
-Not very powerful. While the light WILL make you visible to drivers, it does nothing to illuminate the road in front of you, and is of no use for avoiding potholes and other obstacles at night.

All and all, the little light served it's intended purpose of improving my visibility on nighttime rides until I could afford to purchase a better set of lights/generator. Had I known I would only receive a single light I probably would not have picked this particular item, but if you don't mind paying 9 dollars for just the one, and are looking for a safety light rather than a headlight to guide your path, it's not bad.
