My only complaint is they still work. So I have no reason to buy one of the more nifty front and rear lights that I can pair with my Garmin device so I can control them from my device while riding. And easily change the flash pattern, brightness or whether to be steady or not.
Believe me this works so badly you’re not missing anything.
