What customers say about "Key Specs"

Cygolite Dash 350 USB Rechargeable Bicycle Headlight

I live in a city so I tend to use the lower setting of the Quad lamps on steady and the main light flashing so car drivers can see me.
On steady high mode it has a beam better than any of my flashlights.
At night in the city with the Dash set to Daylight flashing I can see signs 6 blocks away and people have told me to turn if off because it was so bright.
The dual light types is nice. One for visibility and one for lighting my path.
Multiple lighting options, I like the flash option which is bright for cars to detect you.

Cygolite Metro 400 USB Rechargeable Bike Light

Great for trails, easy to mount and adjust. Stays put, great coverage. VERY bright on high.
I love this light. It's bright, compact, has a great variety of modes.
Good Quality light and sufficiently bright on the brightest setting.
Great light overall. The blinking modes are very bright and clearly visible.
The light is extremely bright and couldn't be easier to attach.

What customers say about "Features"

Cygolite Dash 350 USB Rechargeable Bicycle Headlight

This button actually has a number of nice features: on/off, recalls last setting which is great!, low battery indicator, and will even tell you when you're operating at full power for some reason.
I actually like the rubber strap mount, I've pulled it on tight and it doesn't really move positions.
I love the little led bar on this light. Once the battery starts running low switch to led only mode and you get several hours more of light.
I like the flexibility of being able to place it on various positions on my handlebar.
Another thing I love is that it has the stretchy rubber thing to attach it to the handlebars rather than a mount it slides onto.

Cygolite Metro 400 USB Rechargeable Bike Light

Great light - fits nicely on both of my bikes and works well.
The adjustable left/right swivel is great for centering the light beam, doesn't move unless you force it.
Also, the mount was easy to install, but almost did not fit the circumference of my round handlebar.
The light is easily removed and recharged. Also works great as a flashlight.
Easy to mount. Easy to take on and off mount to recharge with USB cable.
The mounting block on top of the clamp is always really loose and no amount of tightening of the screw that holds it on will keep it in place.

What customers say about "Power"

Cygolite Dash 350 USB Rechargeable Bicycle Headlight

So far the battery life is great. Only charged once in a month.
It's durable, charges relatively fast, extremely bright on it's highest setting.
Rechargeable battery is much easier than having to swap out batteries every few weeks. Holds a long charge.
Nice, bright light with a long-lasting battery.
Compact unobtrusive bar mount and very powerful. Long lasting charge.

Cygolite Metro 400 USB Rechargeable Bike Light

I clocked it around five hours of battery life alternating between medium and high.
The USB is a nice way to charge. The batteries on both lights last a long time.
It also has a medium beam/bright flash mode that lights up the night brightly while conserving precious battery, enabling longer use at night.
The light is excellent and bright, the battery charge is good enough to get me home from just about anywhere.
It's bright, the choices of settings make sense and are practical, it charges fast, holds a LONG charge, and feels solid.
