After I got the Lumotech IQ Fly light I sold my Light and Motion Vega. And man the Lumotec IQ Fly did not disappoint. It is a very bright light, and it gets bright at a much lower speed than the shimano nexus light that came on the Castro Valley.
But I thought it would be a good idea to use a helmet mounted blinky light to be more visible when I am in traffic, you know, look left,right so cars see you.
The light has High-Med-Low and blink settings. It is very light and has a small helmet and bar mount.
I had a problem with the handlebar mount as you can see in the picture below.
The clip on the light is supposed to clip in to the handlebar mount, but the notch does not line up and I have to make sure the light does not fall off.
The light is pretty bright, it blinks at a slower rate than most. It seems well built, the on off button has a solid click to it, which is nice. It is relatively inexpensive.
But I just don’t think it works very well on my helmet. I keep checking for the light in store windows and in the reflection of cars but it just doesn’t seem that bright.
Bottom line, I think I’d have to say skip this light. I’d like to try out the Planet Bike Blaze or the new Light and Motion Vega 200.
