He doesn't bash, he just points out the weakness of too many products.... in his videos he even praises a competitors lights (a seca). Especially when it comes to road use, most (non-StVZO) bike lights are just unsuitable (or do you drive with switched on high-beam in your car when you have oncoming traffic?). He just omits the fact that european manufacturers do what he does for quite a few years now (Lupine SL, Supernova M99 Series, B&M Ixon space), and omits that i.e. raveman has some lamps with a okayish cut-off. He also omits that for example lezyne offers suitable road lights (StVZO certified), as did specialized with its flux light.

Lack of technical detail? Taken from the product page (see under specs)



Also here (a now hidden) link with a detailed assembly documentation with some information: https://www.outboundlighting.com/how-its-made/ .In the respective thread at forums.mtbr.com, quite a lot of technical details were given as well, e.g., about the binning of the LEDs. How much more information does one need? The only point of critism might be that those informations are a bit scattered, and that the shop page lists different informations than the non-shop page... Outbounds website is one of the most informative manufacturer webpage when it comes to light design....
