Strengths: lets you be seenWeaknesses: there is a huge blind spot in the middle of the beam that makes it allmost usless and it eats batteriesBottom Line: blah
i will be so happy when i upgrade to somthing better
the led version is good and is great on batterie usage
i would recomend that over this light because the led light dosen't have a big black spot in the middle of the beam ...

Strengths: bright, inexpensive, lightweightWeaknesses: sucks down batteries, chinsyBottom Line: Both front and rear are really bright. the front really consumes batteries though. pretty cheaply made too, doubt it would survive a good impact. but they work for commuting.
Paired with rechargables this is a good little set.

Strengths: Bright, reliable, light weight, easy to remove (but secure when mounted), durable (survived a crash, rain rides)Weaknesses: Seems battery hungryBottom Line: The perfect commuter light. This is the HL-MC200 headlight with the TL-LD500 taillight. The MC200 delivers a bright, well focused beam...plenty of light to let them to see you coming and enough for you to see what's 6 feet ahead. Light weight, clips on and off easily, and a reliable switch and contacts. Think rechargeables. It seems to go through lotsa alkalines, but that's not surprising given the output. The LD500 is very bright and functions as a reflector...but then active beats passive when you're on the road before sun up. Both are very good products and together make a great basic safety package.
