Strengths:
brilliantly simply mount, which loops round the handle bar and attaches to the back of the light-very stirdy (ive found that this a key area other lights ive used have failed on) easily adjustable lenght of battery wire, avoiding any unwanted excess petruding out anywhere it has an inbuilt thermostat which powers down the light to avoid overheating. easy to use switch which controls between the four power modes (high and low on halogen mode, high and low on LED mode). just one button which has desired effect by the legth of time its held down. this is also programmable to the users likes, enabling you to get the desired setup. has an emergency SOS function for those unwanted, but sometimes enevitable events, which if activated, flashes the international SOS signal. comes with a smart charger which annalysis the condition of the battery prior to charging, which apparently results in the battery life being prolonged. very reasurring superb build quality. no little ugly bits of metal coming out of this! excellent illumination-i find it great for abit of night time downhill-mental! or the LEDs are ideal for some road biking 65 hours burn time on Low LED mode, if your into induro! with that mean black finish, looks damn good to!
Weaknesses:
um. trying my very best to think of something?!?! the website comes up in german! perhaps the cost, but if great build, versatile lighting power and ease of use is what you want, then its worth it!
