Work fine until the batteries start to drain.
A good little set but with some flaws.They attach nicely and they're very bright and visible.However, I noticed that when the battery in the main light unit (which is rechargeable with USB) is dying, there's no real way to tell but it will start to completely ignore your commands and/or do random things when you press the buttons.This was immediately apparent out of the box, but charging solved the problem. However it recurs whenever the battery is running down, and it's not an issue with the transmitter (which uses a coin cell) or the distance between transmitter and the lights as they can be really close and it still happens.Could be a safety issue when out on the road, so be sure to keep the charged as you can't see what they're doing while you're riding.The other problem I noticed is that the other button than the indicators puts on the red light, but if you press it long (or the battery starts to die and it decides to just do it, which I witnessed several time!) then it flashes blue and red like a police car. I'm not entirely sure that's legal on UK roads, no matter how much attention it may draw to your presence.The relevant law in the UK for rear lights says:One is required, to show a red light, positioned centrally or offside (the right-hand side of the bike), between 350mm and 1500mm from the ground, at or near the rear, aligned towards and visible from behind. If capable of emitting a steady light it must be marked as conforming to BS3648, or BS6102/3, or an equivalent EC standard. If capable of emitting only a flashing light, it must emit at least 4 candelas.I can't see any reference to blue light there, so I'm not sure you're supposed to ever use that mode on a UK road.Otherwise, they're a nice set.

Cool little bike light/indicator gadget!
The media could not be loaded. This is a fab idea for a bike light. It looks and feels well built and the lights are very bright. The main unit is charged via the included USB lead.Clear orange indicators signal the way you are turning with the press of buttons on a separate (battery operated) controller which attaches onto your handle bars.There is the option of having a small single steady red light on, a bright red fixed light, or a flashing strobe light which is red and blue.Unfortunately, although this is super bright and definitely gets you noticed, I don’t believe they are road legal in the UK, so you will likely just need to use the red only setting for the rear lights.For the price, it’s a cool little inexpensive gadget for people/children who aren’t so confident in letting go of the handle bars to signal manually with their arms, but be aware of legalities of different coloured lights for road use in your country of use!
