Strengths: Price, Long run time, plenty of light. Bulbs have lasted 5+ years.Weaknesses: Extra switch on helmet mount wire is a pain. Have had problems with wiring...sent battery back to Cygo light and they had it back to me in a week repaired.Bottom Line: These have been really good lights for the price. It produces at least 10 watts worth of light. I have used 2 of them at least once a week all winter riding single track for more than 5 years. I had one of the batteries re-wired by Cygo light and have had to replace the helmet mount wire once. They definitely have 5 hours of run time; they last so long I would forget when the last time I charged the battery was. I don't think I have ever run them dead. The only reason for not giving to 5s is the problems I have had with the wiring.

Strengths: Long lasting battery compared to others in same price range, had run it up to 9 hours set on high, and still almost the same, tried to do longer, but it did run after about the 11th hour, we usually do 3 hours ridesWeaknesses: Light will not expand, pretty much all you get is a real bright circle in front of youBottom Line: Really recommend this product, similar product is my friends mini USB niterider same price, but battery only runs 3 hours, the advantage is that niterider expands light wider

Strengths: Incredible! The whiteness allows everything to be more defined. Very small and easy to use (light and battery)Weaknesses: Mount could be more sturdy and hard to fit on bigger handle bars without paying $20 for a different bracket :(
Bottom Line: Huge run time! Allows you to see great details, I like it much more than my 20w halogen.
