Functional, bright, comfortable
I've been using these bands for a few months now with no issues. I have tried the shoe lights that hook around the heel of your running shoe in the past and found that they can pinch your ankle uncomfortably, or if you adjust them to feel comfortable, they tend to fall off without you noticing and become lost. I decided to try this style of running light to see if it was more functional, and have been pleased so far. I really appreciate their versatility- you can wear the light in many different places- wrists, upper arms, ankles, wrapped around the strap of a fanny pack or crossbody bag, etc. I am a fairly large person (5'11", 160) and can comfortably wrap the band around wrists, upper arms, and ankles without any pinching. The bands are sturdy and have not fallen off, regardless of placement. They easily last the duration of a two-hour walk or run without dimming. I usually charge regularly, without waiting for any sign of dimming, so I do not know their run-time limit. It's great that they are rechargeable- another advantage over the shoe-lights, which have to be disassembled with a tiny screwdriver to replace the (expensive) watch batteries they run on. I also appreciate the split charger design, which allows you to charge both light bands simultaneously. I would recommend this item or buy again if needed- I feel they were absolutely worth the money.

Great Product
These work great for our early morning runs. They are bright, visible and have 3 different settings. Charge lasts so dont need to charge every day.

Seems like a good product
Bright, really cool, mostly work for my intended purpose (costume related) with minimal alterations.Worried that the rechargeables won't hold up worth a damn though. Had a lot of problems with small rechargeable batteries in products like this lately.

excellent for my nighttime walks on darkened streets.
I have used these several times for night time walks. I use the slow flash mode, and they are plenty bright, and seem to have plenty of charge life. They are just as bright at the end as when I start (2 hours of walks). No idea how much longer they would go.. but thats plenty for me - and its not showing any signs of weakness.Only issue i have is how the snap bands stay on. When I used them above my ankles, they slowly move around, and I occasionally would re'snug' them to make sure they don't come off. When using on my wrists, they stayed on much better.I like them better on my ankles, because in the dark, they served to lighten up whats right in front of me slightly, while not shining in my eyes. A very nice bonus which doesn't really translate to my wrists.Overall, good product, better than I expected.

Great but it has started to fall apart ..
I think this is a great product for those of us that use the coolness of the night to ride (or walk or run). The light output is great to identify me to drivers when close (I use a taillight to be seen from a distance.) so I can flag my turns with hand motions. I liked it enough to buy a second set in red for my right side.However, the green fabric encloses a piece of spring steel which provides the grip to my wrist and ankle. But that fabric has begun to separate exposing the steel--potential for rust and digs into my skin. And I cannot find a way to talk to the manufacturer.POST2: Tried to seal fabric with glue gun, but that did not last. I appreciate that these will not fall off while running, but they irritate. Basically, the spring steel is too thick; could be half or less the thickness.Now the switch on one of the four units has gone bad and is non-functional. And the battery on another is starting to die requiring charging after a couple of hours of riding. I may have 100-150 hrs of use. I would have expected more. (NOTE: Supplier made no claims as to MTBF.)Because of these two additional issues, I am downgrading my original score to 1. Again, I like the concept, it just seems to have been poorly executed.Aug 2024 UPDATEAS noted above, I bgt 2 pair in Jan 2023. The last band has officially died. (48 hr charging got about 5 min of light.)Battery life range is appx 100 to 200 hrs.Also, I could not think of a way to wash the cloth cover--given that the LED lights are enclosed. After about 100 hrs on my wrist/ankle the sweat (I live in humid Houston) started to build up and stink.Will not be buying them again. Hoping to find a better alternative.

Great for outdoors night activity!
Really happy with these. They are like "snap bracelets" and can wrap relatively comfortably around wrists, forearms, upper arms, or ankles (depending on how thick my clothes are) so you should be able to find a place to wear them easily. They hold power for awhile (I'm yet to even need to recharge them so far, though I'm not a daily user). They are easy to put on and remove, stay stable in place, lightweight, and the color is bright and crisp. I feel very visible wearing these at night.
