The Hotshot replaces a battery powered taillight. So I have no experience with rechargeable taillights.
What are the various runtimes based on the flash mode chosen? Which flas mode provides the longest run time?
Thanks for your help.
I use the Random Flash mode almost exclusively in daylight, so in summer months I can go 1-2 weeks on a charge. In winter when it's dark out, I use one light on Steady with brightness lowered, and the other light on the pulsating mode, then switch the steady light to the combo steady/bright flash mode. I can go about a week on a charge that way. Not really sure about number of hours.
