from Silver Spring, MD Date Reviewed: May 9, 2004 Strengths: Used this only once (2003 Viewpoint EVO Single 10W light and 10W helmet light), but hope to use it more. Bright lights, good battery life (at least 90 minutes, did not use more but still seemed to have full brightness). Weaknesses: Charge time slow, extra cables (but worth it for such a low price).

from Riverside, CA Date Reviewed: March 18, 2004 Strengths: For the 2003 viewpoint EVO helmet light: Good light at a very good price. Weaknesses: For the 2003 viewpoint EVO helmet light: I broke a buckle on the velcro strap the first time I used it. The switch isn't on the light and must be mounted separately on the helmet. This is obviously just a bar light that they packed with a helmet mount. It must be mounted very high on the helmet to have the light pointing forward instead of down.
