<td>Duration Used</td>
<td>6 months. Only 2 rides; one of which was in the Phoenix Park and the other was about 2 hours long</td>

<tr>
<td>Price Paid</td>
<td>€165.86 (free delivery from Chain Reaction Cycles)</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Burn-time</td>
<td>Light has two power settings. According to the documentation up to 6 hours at the lower power and 3 at higher. I’ve only used it for two hours at the lower setting.</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Good points</td>
<td>
Very light and compact.
Attachment mechanisms (Velcro strap for the battery pack and strong circular bands for the light itself) are easy to use and should fit any bike.
</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Bad points</td>
<td>
Comes only with bike mount. Need to buy helmet mount and extension cable to use on helmet. That’s about another €30.
Up to 6 hours to fully charge, though I don’t really see that as a problem.

<tr>
<td>Rating</td>
<td>5/5 (but I’ve not tried any other lights, or indeed used these much)</td>
