Cateye EL-135 and TL-LD130R Bicycle Headlight and Tail Light Combination Reviews
41 of 42 people found the following review helpful Perfect for City Commuting, By This review is from: Cateye EL-135 and TL-LD130R Bicycle Headlight and Tail Light Combination (Sports) These two lights make a great combination for the price. The quick-detach mounts are very straightforward to install, the lights come on and off easily and are bright enough for most conditions. I use them for a 25 mile round trip commute at least one leg of which is before or after sunlight. I use the disco mode on the rear light, and the flashing mode on the front except for the darkest areas. Another great convenience is AA and AAA batteries - I prefer to always use rechargables, so I am never at risk of not having a battery when I need one. Overall, these are very good lights and nicely round out the look on my all-black Fuji Patrol bike. I'm contemplating adding a PlanetBike set just for good measure, but these also do just fine on their own. If you are buying lights, don't go too cheap, these are perfect. Also they can handle a lot of rain (I live in Eugene, OR w/ 200 days of rain a year). 28 of 29 people found the following review helpful Can You See Me Now?, By Old Hippie (St. Louis, MO.) - See all my reviews This review is from: Cateye EL-135 and TL-LD130R Bicycle Headlight and Tail Light Combination (Sports) Once again, I should've shopped at Amazon.com first. Oh, well...I made the local bike shop slightly richer. This light set is about $27.00 on Amazon.com. About $10 higher at your local bike shop.What impressed me first is two words you never hear anymore...BATTERIES INCLUDED! Alkaline batteries at that. The headlight naturally mounts on the handlebars & the the tail-light can be mounted on the seat-post, or comes with a belt clip; great for night-time joggers. (You won't find me jogging with my weak back & legs.) Another plus...no tools required for installation. The headlight can either shine continuously or flashing. The rear has three choices; continuous, flashing, or random flashing. Both use three LED lights. Battery life, according to specs, should be about 150 hours flashing and 80 continuous. The front headlight takes two AA batteries; the rear two AAA batteries. Once again...alkaline batteries are included. Both lights can be removed easily...

In fact, I decided to buy this product primarily because of the many positive reviews. The LEDs are bright and certainly will help make riders more visible, especially when the lights are used in their flashing beacon modes. However, the headlight provides only marginal lighting for unlit roads or trails, as mentioned by others. My main complaint is that the lens and one battery fell off of the rear light when I hit small depression on a paved street. More recently the lens, LED lights and circuitry fell off of the front light when jarred by a not too severe bump. The wire leads from the battery compartment are very small and fragile, so the weight of the LED lights, which are mounted on the circuit board, was enough to break the wires from their solder joints. After some searching I found the parts that fell off, but the wires are very small and... Read more |
