Shoutout to Cygolite

Just wanted to give Cygolite some praise. I've had a Metro 800 headlight for about three years. This weekend on a ride the cap for the charging port on the back disappeared.

This morning I emailed customer service to find out if replacements were available. Within 4 hours they emailed me back, asked for a photo of the back of the light, and they are mailing me a replacement.

This wasn't a huge deal but I really appreciate the fast response and the gesture of a free replacement.

Nice!
I wish other companies would do similar things.
but that'd require the component to be serviceable.

I have also had service from Cygolite where they went beyond what they promised. They earned my loyalty.
