Comments about CatEye SL-LD120 Orbit Spoke Light Kit:
Great little light. I had to put some paper towel just alittle to keep the lite on.It would stop working and just a little pressure on the button and it comes back on. With that in there it works great. The paper inside the button. You will have to put some in alittle at a time in till its just rite and stays on. The life of the batteries are true. They get a little dimmer at a time in till they shut off. I run them till dead and change them out. I run mine in flashing mode to get the best life out of them.

Comments about CatEye SL-LD120 Orbit Spoke Light Kit:
I love this light. It makes my bike very visible at night. The only negative I have to add is that the screw cover for the battery on one of the lights fell off after only a few months.
Otherwise, they work GREAT.

Comments about CatEye SL-LD120 Orbit Spoke Light Kit:
My night commuting setup had good visibility from the front and rear, but was really missing side visibility. These lights definitely fill that niche, at a reasonable price. If your wheels are spinning at a good clip, it looks like you have a complete circle of light around each wheel (whether in flashing or steady mode, so I keep mine flashing for maximum battery life).
My boyfriend thought they were so cool he "borrowed" one and hasn't given it back... I guess we'll have to get another set so we can both cover both wheels!

Comments about CatEye SL-LD120 Orbit Spoke Light Kit:
I bike everywhere I go in the Bay Area. These spoke lights are highly visible, as well as fun and easy to use. As with most lights, it has both a flash and constant mode. However, I can't see why it is necessary, since most of the time your wheels are rotating, so you might as well maximize battery life. They may invoke equipment envy from your fellow cyclists!

Comments about CatEye SL-LD120 Orbit Spoke Light Kit:
I live in Northern Wisconsin. I work third shift and bike 12.5 miles each way. These are a must have. They were easy to install and they really make my bike visible. The only downside is that they add rotational weight to the wheel and at high speed I notice a bouncing sensation. This is a small price to pay for safety.

Comments about CatEye SL-LD120 Orbit Spoke Light Kit:
I commute to and from work almost everyday. While I first thought this was just a 'fun' light... after riding at night I realize this is the BEST SAFETY light I have... the spinning light ATTRACTS attention ... and really gets seen.
I recommend using in CONSTANT MODE only. Flashing is not necessary.
