— Show originalA must for dark road trips. I never drive on the highways without this| Overall rating |
— Show originalThe radar has worked flawlessly and the battery has lasted a long time.| Overall rating |
— Show originalAttaching the light was easy and the positive thing is that the package includes a D-seatpost adapter. it wobbles a bit when you put the light in place, but maybe I should try one more notch shorter rubber link, if that would help the problem.
The radar works well, and in the urban area you want to silence the device when it works too well. That is, if I drive on a bike path, it detects cars driving on the adjacent highway. This is perhaps a small disappointment. The lights can be turned on or off from Edge's screen. I hope to find a way to turn off the sounds as well. The problem is that I wouldn't want to turn off the sounds completely, because then when driving on the road you won't hear the warning in time.| Overall rating |
— Show originalGreat process!
Item delivered as promised, safely packaged, everything in perfect order and working perfectly.
Highly recommended!| Overall rating |
— Show originalEverything worked, good product.| Overall rating |
— Show originalBrilliant clue. Should have gotten it earlier. Cars can't surprise you anymore!| Overall rating |
— Show originalVisible light. Has lasted several rains. The light and radar are both on or off, no blinker features, which is fine by me.| Overall rating |
— Show originalA truly mind-blowing product on all roads where cars can come from behind. Increases safety considerably| Overall rating |
— Show originalWorks great, tested on two 12-hour trips. When you take a power bank on a trip, you can charge it during longer breaks. And of course you can switch it off on cycle paths, now I didn't do that because of the charm of the novelty. I used the Ride with GPS App on my iPhone and played well with it. A solid recommendation, the cars never failed to surprise me. The mirror has already been used before and now it works great together with this.
