Powerful light with versatile mounting and good battery life
At road.cc every product is thoroughly tested for as long as it takes to get a proper insight into how well it works. Our reviewers are experienced cyclists that we trust to be objective. While we strive to ensure that opinions expressed are backed up by facts, reviews are by their nature an informed opinion, not a definitive verdict. We don't intentionally try to break anything but we do try to look for weak points in any design.
The light has a quick-release clip for attaching it to the mount or clipping it to a saddle bag or backpack. This is a great feature as my partner often uses a larger saddle bag and it does compromise the visibility of a rear light. I was initially concerned about stability but found it held secure on any ride.
It also has a memory function, so it'll turn on in the most recently used mode, which is handy if you tend to stick to the same mode most of the time. One useful feature is the auto-off which switches the light off if you haven't moved in a few minutes. It worked well if I forgot to switch it off, but never turned itself off when waiting at some lights, for example, and it's reactivated with the slightest of movements so you don't need to worry about it not turning back on.I've also been reviewing the TR350, and with both lights the brake sensor and auto on/off can only be activated together.
The light performed well across a variety of riding. The mounting system is excellent and the battery life was long enough for any ride, even if it did take a long time to charge.The versatility of the mounting system was great.How does the price compare to that of similar products in the market, including ones recently tested on road.cc?
Overall, this is a good front light. It's very bright, the battery life is great, and I liked the versatile mounting system, but it's a little pricey compared with some.We’ve noticed you’re using an ad blocker.
