BOG Ultrabright LED Front And Rear Bike Lights Review
If you've been a follower of my blog for quite some time now, you might've read that hubby rides his bike when he goes to work because his work office is just 5 minutes away from our home. There's no problem with him riding his bike in the morning because he's visible. When he rides his bike to go home, that's where the problem is because it's almost dark. There were 2 instances when he was crossing an intersection and a right turning car didn't see him. Both hit the back wheel of his bike a bit but good thing they didn't hit his wheel hard.
I don't like the fact that even with his front and rear bike lights, there are some who's not careful enough when turning right in an intersection.
When I received the BOG Ultrabright LED light, I looked forward to try it to see if both the lights are bright enough for his bike.
The BOG Lights arrived in a yellow box. The contents inside the box were:
- 1 x 5-LED Head/front bike light
- 1 x bracket for the head/front bile light
- 1 x 5-LED Back/rear red bike light
- 1 x bracket for the back/rear bike light
The head/front bike light needed 3xAAA batteries to work while the back/rear bike light needed 2xAAA batteries to work. Batteries weren't included in the box.
What's included are 4 adhesive reflective strips which can be placed anywhere on the bike.
The 5-LED Headlight has 3 functions and which can be turned on/off and changed by pressing the grey button on top of the light. The bracket included can be installed on the bike easily. The headlight can be mounted on the bracket by sliding it on or off. Hubby brings the BOG headlight home by sliding it off the bracket to prevent it from being stolen.
The 5-LED red rear light has 7 functions which can be turned on/off or changed by pressing the button at the back of the light. Similar to the headlight, the bracket included is easily installed on the bike and the light can also be mounted on the bracket by sliding the light on or off the bracket.
The 5-LED headlight is very bright and increased hubby's visibility. The 5-LED red rear light is also bright which increases his visibility at the back. Hubby likes how easy to install the brackets are and I like how I have a peace of mind knowing that he'll be safer using the BOG lights.
