What use?

I bought these lamps as bike lights. Knowing that you can now use battery powered plug lights. As this article is listed under bicycle lights, I thought to myself that I can not go wrong here.

Far from it!

The diodes have a luminosity of a cheap, delivered as a promotional gift, flashlight. What followed was clear: I was stopped and cautioned by the police. The lights are definitely off-road roadworthy! That this product is still listed in this category, bordered in my eyes already on fraud.

In addition, the durability of the AA batteries comes. Specified under Article Description 50 hours For me (a half hour every evening through the darkness) were within two weeks all the batteries, front and rear completely empty. Used commercial batteries that everyone can buy commercially.
But even fully charged, the white LED makes as little luminosity that they can not serve to pathfinding guaranteed.

But with all the negative side I would like to remain as fair and the only positive feature of these lights mention: the rubber mount is very tear-resistant, the lamps can be easily clips on different thickness rods. A secure grip slips and little, but as I said, my nocturnal bike activity is limited to 20-30 minutes per night. In addition, these are surprisingly Weatherproof. Neither rain, frost or similar extreme weather conditions could the elastics harm you. There is then also the second star.

All in all I can recommend these bulbs in no case! Perhaps they are for inline skaters who want to be simply seen by other road users, make sense. All others, especially the cyclists can better steer clear of it!
