This lamp is absolutely brilliant, with great lighting power, even at night, and sufficient autonomy for bikepacking. The mount is brilliant in that it's universal, even on flat handlebars: the rounded rubber can be unscrewed to fit aero handlebars. I've put the weight down, but for power and autonomy it's normal. What's more, despite several falls, it's extremely resistant and works perfectly. I'd like to thank Mantel for their competitive prices and top-notch delivery.
I use this light to train at night on my road bike before going to work and I am very happy. I have gone from using a 200 lumens light that lasted me 1h 15' and I stretched it up to 2 hours reducing the intensity when I went through areas with streetlights, to leaving home with 800 lumens, (it's like the night becomes day), without having to worry about battery life. I usually train for two hours at night and at 800 lumens the specifications of this light give 4 hours of autonomy, so I do my training without any problem. This light gives a very nice white light, there are other lights that give more yellowish light. At first I was a little worried that this light was going to dazzle drivers. If you point it in the drivers face of course you are going to dazzle them, but the beam of this light is very well focused and if you direct the light with a little tilt towards the ground, the main beam of the light focuses on the road and does not dazzle. Along with the main beam, this light also gives a softer diffused light that illuminates your surroundings without disturbing anyone. It has a rubber attachment that looks sturdy and durable, I find it very useful, because I can attach and remove it from the handlebars or helmet in seconds. The shape of the helmet I have, POC Octal, allows me to attach this light directly to the helmet. I like to wear it on the helmet, because by focusing on the road from a greater height, you get even more vision, and by having it attached to the head, you have light where you want to look. For example, I don't need to carry the backlit GPS to see time, heart rate, power, etc, because when I want to look at it with the light it lights up and I see it. Carrying the light in the helmet is also useful to not miss what happens on the sides of the road, for example, you see some eyes glowing in the dark, you look over there with the light and you see perfectly that there is a fox. On the other hand, some afternoons I have to work in the field, pruning, tilling, now in winter when it gets dark very early, I put the light at 1300 lumens on my helmet and continue pruning or tilling for a while more seeing perfectly. My tractor is very old, its lights are very weak, this light illuminates better than my tractor. Regarding the power button, it has a silicone button that is very easy to press and allows you to go very quickly from one mode to another, in 3 seconds you can have gone completely around the 7 modes, so I see no problem having to go through all the modes, in the case of wanting to change from 800 to 1300, for example. This button lights green when the battery is between 100 and 50%, yellow when it is between 50 and 10%, red between 10 and 5%, and flashing red when less than 5% is left. With the light off, by clicking the button, the button lights up indicating the battery charge level with the color of light you see. To turn the light on you hold it down for 2 seconds and it turns on in the mode you left it in. The flash mode of 150 lumens I thought it would not be very powerful to see you during the day, but I'm glad to be wrong, I put it at the same time as my old light that has a specific daytime flash mode that reaches 2 km, and this is even more powerful, we are going to see you great day. I leave you a photo of the road illuminated with 800 lumens, to do it pedaling and the mobile not being good with night photos, does not have very good quality, but I think it is perfectly appreciated that illuminates the road very well.

I like to ride with this lamp MTB trails. As a helmet lamp this lamp delivers confidence even in difficult terrain. In Race UI it is possible to quickly switch between full power and 150 lumens.
This is my first purchase from this site and certainly not my last. The product is exactly as described. I use it 2 times a day morning/evening for a total of 22 km, and I am very satisfied. I was delivered in 4 days, which is very good for a normal delivery. I recommend this product.

Very solid lamp. With good light output. Especially in the woods. Costs a bit but then you get something.

Fantastic fine lamp, multiple possibilities to use light strength, very satisfied with this lamp. Tis definitely a must for those who want to tour a bit in the evening.
The lamp is really very bright. I drove through the forest at night. You feel safe even on faster descents because bumps are well illuminated. The attachment to the handlebars is uncomplicated, but by the rubber band is not bombproof. The change through the different light modes is somewhat cumbersome, as there are 7 modes, these can only be switched through one after the other with a button. But there is also a "Race Mode" in which there are only 2 modes. I get along well with it: Moderate light for roads with lighting and full power on unlit paths. Am overall very satisfied, but have no comparison to similar lamps
