Bought two sets from this seller, but the lights are actually made by a taiwanese company called "D Light". If you only buy one set of front and back rechargeable lights, this is a good set to have. I've actually bought x3 rear D Light's before, so I knew what I was getting when I bought x2 sets.The Good:========- well made, light weight. I've dropped the rear lights several times and nothing has cracked or broken.- weather proofing seems good- no water got in with my previous ones, and the rubber covering is tick and snug over the USB port. Many rechargeable lights have a very thin rubber covering. I've had them break off before, or had water from rain get through on those ones.- battery life is good. If you've looked at the run times of many rechareable lights, especially ones from 2-3 years ago, you'll notice the longest was about 4-6 hours. These ones last much longer- 12 hours flashing for both front and back, and the back one also has a "casing mode", which extends battery life to 25 hours- that's really long! I don't like it as much as flashing though because there's a 1 second gap with no light before the "chasing begins again.- bright- will be seen easily at night, even during the day it's enough to be noticed.- the light can be seen from the side- both front and back lights.- Comes with a lot of equipment inside the box- there's the mount bracket and elastic, several zip ties, a pair of velcro straps, two double sided sticky pads. You'll be able to attach these lights to almost every surface, on your bike, helmet, travel bag..etc- the back or both lights have a clever design where this clip type extensdsion attaches to both the bike mount, or on other things, like cord, slots etc,The not so good:=============- I originally had x3 rear lights. I lost one soon after purchase. I t seems the bike mounts are best used in their "proper" orientation. Like the rear light should be on a more vertical pole, like a bike seat post. One time, I had two lights on a horizontal post at the end of my bike rack, and one light came off and was lost. When sideways, the turn and lock fitting becomes loose after you ride and the vibrations make the light turn a quarter turn, which is the position for it to come off.- the remaining rear lights no longer work for the original length of time, but then again, I've recharged them at least 100 times by now. Flashing works for, perhaps, 10 hours now.Overall a good light combo, well worth the money.
