Title: LED = Long battery life
Product review: If you often travel unlit roads or trails at night, this is NOT the light for you. It simply doesn't light up your surroundings well enough. LEDs are good for seeing them from a distance, but they are not good flood lights. However, if you're like me and simply want to be seen by traffic, this light is perfect. I ride at night on streets that are at least partially lit, so I wanted a light that would allow me to be seen by traffic, and be easy on battery life.The partial flash mode (where the side LEDs flash and the center ones stay constant on) is very visible by oncoming traffic. I wouldn't use the full-flash mode (all LEDs flash) at night; ever try to ride a bike in a strobe-light? I think that's used more for that dangerous time around sunset, where the sun is low on the horizon and it's hard for drivers to see anything.
