Cycle Torch Night Owl USB Rechargeable Bike Light #mycycletorch


Image provided by CycleTorch.com

I took some picture to like they did on their website to show the distance that these light can be seen. Both the headlight and tail light can be seem from at least 500 away in their high or constant state. The taillight which runs off of 2 CR2032 button batteries lasts up to 50 hours. The headlight is rechargeable and will last anywhere from 2-40 depending on what mode it is used with. The recharging is done by an included USB cable which allows you to charge it in the same way you would change any of your other devices.

I need to mention that this headlight has a charging indicator that I have not seem on other lights. If I press the button for 3 second and then release it will flash the light for every 10% of batter life remaining. For instance mine just flashed 8 times so it still has 80% battery life which means that I used it for about 24 minutes since I have only used it on high. Reading though the manual online it warns that:

“It is strongly recommended to recharge Night Owl 200 when there is less than 20% load (see: check the battery charge level). Do not wait until the light goes completely out as this will greatly reduce the number of charge cycles that the battery can be used and can render the battery unusable. Charge your bike light each 2-3 months when stored or not in use to prevent battery degradation.” 

This is important to note because I am used to running a light almost dead and then putting in new batteries. Since this is rechargeable I don’t have the option of carrying batteries for replacement.

One of the other features that I really like is the rubber bands to are used to strap the light onto the bike. They have incidental sections to that it fits multiple sizes of handle bars or seat posts. I the web site days that the headlight can also be mounted on a helmet with additional hardware not provide in the original package. What makes this set up really nice for me is it is a breeze to move the lights from one bike to another or to remove them while be bike is parked in a public area.

Overall the dimensions are small and they are light weight but don’t be fooled. This set is very bright and much better than others that I have had. Cycle Torch has done a great job at providing a great products at a very affordable prices. Not to mention that the 365-days returns completely free warranty registration page on their website literally has only 6 fields to fill in to cover the product.

3.0 out of 5 stars Needs instructions and lacks water shutoff in the connector., November 23, 2016
This nozzel is great but need insructions if the included parts are going to be in the package. This nozzel is in good compition with its competiotors and maybe a step ahead of some due to the thumb trigger that contols the water flow. It has 8 spary pattersn for a wide variety of uses and with the preasure being able to be adjusted easily without have int to continue to hold a trigger it is up their as one of my favorites. I rated this as just OK because i feel it is lacming in some areas.

The major areas is the lack of instructions. I ordered this partially because it seemed to be a quick connect set up but most of the extra parts don't screw onto a hose. The only thing I can think of is that it is pleased on a hose to repair on that has had the ends cut off. If that is the case it is a great idea but I wish i had known that before i bought it and that their were instructions to show me how to do it correctly instead of guessing.

Another issue that I hope will be addressed is the fact that it is a quick connect but I still have to shut off the water before connecting it. May be I am expecting too much or am lazy but other quick connect adapters have had a mechanism in the female end that does not allow water flow unless the male end is seated firmly in the connection.

Please don't get me wrong. I like this product but wish it functioned better to my expectations. As a side note it does come with extra rubber washers.

5.0 out of 5 stars Extra length if you need it, November 23, 2016
I will start by saying that I did not measure before i bought this so the mat is longer than I needed but that is OK. We previously had a mat in our tub mainly to keep the baby who is now sitting up from sliding around in the tub. It is also great for the safety of my other children as well. this mat functions and appears very similar to the other mat with one main difference (besides the length) of the cut-out on one end that goes around the drain. My chief complaint with the other mat was that it partially covered the drain making it slower to let the water out. This has fixed the issue.

My kids like this mat because "the bumps feel good on my feet" and the suction keeps it in place. If is kind of funny to listen to it when you peel it up to when cleaning the tub and at first all my kids wanted to try. i had to tell them that it was not a toy otherwise they all were going clean the tub just so they could have a turn peeling it up...I must be sick not allowing my kids to do extra, unnecessary chores.

5 stars. I lives up to its claims and I have no complaints since I can't find anything wrong with it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good product with a twist, November 23, 2016
I like this product. I have other pacifier clips that work equally well to these in most ways but these stand out because of a few key features.

As a comparison the similarities include:
*made of durable cloth material
*seams are well sewn
*attractive pattern
*ability to use with more than just pacifiers
*washable
*great clips made of plastic

The differences that make these stand out from the competitor:
*they glow in the dark when they have been in the light for a sufficient amount of time
*the sting to attach to the pacifier or toy of a thinner ribbon than the thin braided strings of others
*the silicone attachment for "old school" pacifiers-this may be useful for some for their intended purpose but for me they are just great for my baby to chew on.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simple and well made., November 18, 2016
Simple and is the name of the game. I have been using binder clips to hold come of my cables for awhile now. They work alright but you have to have the right size for the desk thickness which also determines what size cord it will hold. If the desk was thick i would have to use a 1' binder clip but then the lightning charging cable would fall through it. The Vorfreude® Cable Clips take care of these issues.
I love that they come in different colors but you can also get them in plain white of black if you want to be more conservative. The 3M sticky backing is great and hold well. I have also tried to peal the cable clip off a few of my desks a number of time to see if the stickiness is a one time thing or if they will hold be placed a few different time. I am happy to say that they re-stick and have not even pealed up the wood laminate finish like other sticky things might.
I also like that the set I have has three channels which allows me to have multiple cables secured at the same time without having to use multiple cable clips.
5 stars for a simple well made product that I have needed for a while.

U-FIT Top Performance Swim Goggles - Comes With Case! by U-FIT
5.0 out of 5 stars Great Goggles. Great Company., October 31, 2016
I love these swimming goggles. I have another pair made by U-FIT and these are very similar to them. The seals around the eyes are great and don’t leak like many other brands have. I also really like that the headband has a clasp on the back that allows you to remove the googles very easily. I also like the ratcheting mechanism on either side of the back clasp. This allows you to get an even tightening of the goggles and keeps them as tight as desired not like the others that adjust on the sides by the lenses. These are very comfortable. The U-FIT goggles are my favorite. Now that I have 2 pairs I am not sure how to choose which ones to use!

Other than the lack of ear and nose plugs with these the only difference between these and the other pair I have is the nose piece. Both are flexible and work well so I am not quite sure why they are different except for looks.

The other difference is the nice storage case they come in. The case is made of a hard plastic with a hinge on the bottom and holes on the underside. A great feature of the case is the twisting lock on the top that has a hole in it so that the case can be hung.

U-FIT is a great company that stands behind their quality products.

4.0 out of 5 stars A little bit goes a long way., October 10, 2016
Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This works true to its claims. When I first started using this product I noticed that it goes on with a pink tint. That was very nice for me since I am a first-time user of this type of product. The pink helped me more easily see where I had done and get a more even coat. I like that this product does not have a very powerful smell like I was expecting it to have. Much like the product the instructions were simple and straightforward.

When I ordered the paint sealant I was especially interested in using tit on an area of my hood where I had to repaint some major pain peeling. The last time I repainted these areas I was in a hurry and did a horrible job. After using this sealant in this area I can tell that although it is not completely bringing it to a shine like other areas would it does still obviously protect the car's surface providing a shield against the hazards of the road. i just took another look at it and compared it to an area I had left untouched and the dirt that is on my car again from driving it for a few days brushes right off on the protected area but not so easily on the untouched area. I tried to get some good pictures for comparison but I am not sure they really show it that well.

I have used the the Car Wash by TriNova and this uphold the same standard. As far as I can tell from these two products they have a very high standard and are consistent with it.
