Cygolite Metro 360/Hotshot 2W Combo Light Set Review

Having a flashing headlight on your bike is nothing short of amazing in terms of the road manners of most people
driving cars and my visibility on a bike.

After I fully charged the duo, I mounted them and went for a ride.

While doing barely 1 mph on my bike and fiddling with my pedals to make sure I was ready for another sprint, I arrived
at a T junction where a girl stopped her car at the junction; She was waiting for me to pass by. It was only when
I looked up and realized that she was still watching and waiting well over 15 seconds for someone who was 30 ft away from her,
and barely moving, did I realize the effectiveness of the "day lightening" mode. And I called out to say, "go ahead."

After I got going, I caught up with her fairly quickly as this was winding, coastal road with a 25 mph limit and humpback whales
breaching the azure waters not more than 100 yards off the coast. Therefore she wasn't flying down the road and I got up to speed in no time.

I got to her bumper and was to her right, after a block of riding in that area and realizing her unwillingness (or inability to see me)
to give me space, I rode out towards the center of the road so that she would see me - sure enough, it worked and she pulled to the
left, giving me a wide berth and let me pass unhindered - to continue trying to beat my personal record for another segment on my Strava App.

I think this is a fantastic purchase! The brightness is more than enough and maybe when I take my cross bike off road, I may need another
light, in which case I might upgrade to the metro 500 or an expillion or just get another metro 360...TBD.

Quick thoughts on products:

1. I charged both lights using an iPhone brick - the computer is too slow.

2. The lights were shipped with charge but the instructions indicated that they must be fully charged before use, I did so.

3. I did the metro first and played around with it while the hotshot was getting charged. The "walking" mode is a really low output
but perfectly suited for a walking pace. The other modes are well thought out.

4. My day time go to mode is the day lightening and dusk/dark mode is the one with a triple flash and a steady output at the same time.

5. I realized very quickly that I'd made a mistake with the hotshot as I pulled it out of the charged by the plug but I forgot to disconnect the cable from the plug. The hotshot was discharged while being left as such and had to be fully charged again.

So, remember to disconnect the lights from the USB cords after charging or they will discharge.

6. The Hotshot is supremely bright as well and infinitely adjustable to your specific flashing needs!
Just make sure you've aimed it correctly and tightened the bolts up and you're good to go!

One more thing: If you put your bare palm in front of the light, you WILL feel the heat. These CREE LED's are pretty amazing. (Don't expect them to start a fire for you though)
