In my case, the hub and light continue to perform flawlessly. I've added about 200mi of night riding since I've installed it. I'd say previous to this, using my battery headlamp, my night riding miles for the same period would be closer to 50mi, so it definitely makes it easier to ride at night. Now to keep warm and dry---the typical autumn/winter riding snafus.
