for most of the trip the other night just to see what it would be like. It was still over 80 degrees out and I felt like just taking it easy, so I figured this would be a good night to see what I could see with only 1 light. I usually use that in addition to xml Magic shine on the handlebars, and did turn the Magic Shine on a few times when crossing some busy roads, but overall I was impressed with how well I could see with "just" the Vis 360. My old L2D that used to be the light to have when I bought it seems even dimmer now.
