Distinctive looking light with extra battery options, but disappointingly dim

Leyzne's typically distinctive design looks like it belongs on board some sort of retro Flash Gordon spaceship. Rather than a ray gun, the light mounts a single LED in a fat fluted 'cigar' body, with cut out faceted lens sides for increased traffic visibility.

The three power levels and flash mode give a decent run time for the size before the warning light comes on. The battery is replaceable and a spare is included in the extra-cost 'Loaded' package, should you need a longer run time. The Loaded package also includes a metal bar mount – otherwise you get a plastic thumbscrew-tightened mount with two sizes of band supplied for inch and oversized round bars. Unfortunately, while features are good the actual output is disappointing, with a vague flood patch right in front of the wheel and a separate fuzzy spot in central mid-distance but no real reach.

Product "48970" does not exist or you do not have permission to access it.
