    Comments about NiteRider MiNewt Mini-USB LED Bike Light:

    This is a glorified AAA light.

    It's been out for 1.5 years and is already outdated.

    Cygo has a 150 lumen one piece Lithium Ion light out right now for the same price.

    I'd wait for NiteRider's next generation light.

    110 lumens is not enough!

    With 110 lumens, you can be seen but you cannot see!

      • Night commute

      Comments about NiteRider MiNewt Mini-USB LED Bike Light:

      Works well for bike path. Beam is strong enough to see in front and a bit to the sides. Lights up obstructions. It is very light weight and the battery and light remove easily.

        This is a great light for commuting. It's bright and easy to recharge, I put it on a USB at work and it's charged by lunchtime. I've had oncoming traffic flick thier brights on to signal me to dim the light. All that for[$]? It's a great deal. Don't drop the battery though. It broke from a 3 feet drop onto concrete. Otherwise it'd be 5 stars.
