Great lamp for this price.
At highest setting, very bright ambient light. Can be used anywhere with the 5 settings. Do miss battery charge status.

Fantastic lamp, lousy standard mount
Good light, I use the lamp mainly on unlit cycle paths through the forest. But good light is worthless if it does not shine where it is needed. With the standard attachment, the lamp sinks with every minimal bump. After buying the BBB tightfix attachment, it's a fantastic lamp. Only drawback that remains is that you easily blind others. In combination with the BBB tightfix, the lamp gets 5 stars as far as I'm concerned.

Very good lamp, I recommend it!
This is my second lamp of the same type for a second bike, as I've been using the first one for 6 months and I'm completely satisfied with it. It's very powerful, well designed and of good quality. The only downside was the bracket that came with it, which I replaced with a bracket from the same brand with a screw clamp - it really doesn't move any more. Be careful in town, the lamp can dazzle other road users because it's so bright.

Very good and far too difficult to operate!
A lot of settings in 1 button: pressing it for 1 second does this, 2 seconds this, 5 seconds that. As a result, when I'm on my racer in the dark with gloves on, if I just want to turn the light up a notch, it just goes off or starts flashing or... always waiting. Fantastic lamp, if you have a doctorate in technical physics and can quickly understand how the lamp works.

Top purchase, own safety in traffic raised a level.
Seeing and being seen is the first requirement for a cyclist, especially in the dark autumn and winter months. With this device, there is a choice of different light levels that can be conveniently adjusted while riding, without having to stop to do so. Heavily cloudy day, or pitch-dark night, with this device you will always be fine.

Excellent buy for the price
For the price offered by Mantel, you can't beat it in my opinion. I took one for the velotaff, I'm thinking of taking another for the racing bike for the winter. Bbb on the left, lezyne 500 classic on the right

Excellent night lighting!
It's a (very) good product. The only problem is that it's a bit unstable when you hit a bump or an irregularity in the road. I'm trying to find a system to lock it in. I'll also check with another handlebar/bike.

Love the light
Previously I had a dark sparkler with which I never saw anything. Now I could light up a stadium with it, which is absolutely fantastic.

I don't know how the cyclist is seen by motorists, but in the middle of the night, the lighting is impeccable.

Good with a but.
A fine lamp, which, while not providing as nicely flattened a beam as the Philips Saferide or its Spanninga successor, does provide plenty of light, ample for unlit (forest) bike paths. The only downside is that the mounting is not below the center of gravity, so the lamp tends to tilt forward at every bump. Only remedy is very tightening. This is a real beginner's mistake in my opinion.

Ideal lamp for a long drive in the dark, plenty of visibility!
This BBB light gives more than enough light to make a nice ride in the dark. The advantage of this light is that it fits on an aerobar handlebar. The different positions between high and low or passing all positions makes the light easy to use. Attention: at maximum setting the light is blinding for oncoming traffic (especially motorists). In short, great lamp.

5 / 5
No reason to stop cycling at night.
Visibility was better than expected, the max setting is fine on really remote roads, the other settings already give enough light for good visibility when there are more buildings.
