About Planet Bike
In November of 1996, Planet Bike was founded in Madison, Wisconsin. In many ways, Planet Bike began as a social experiment that dedicated itself to doing business in a different way. Instead of being just another company that develops and sells products with profit as its end goal, Planet Bike wanted to help bring about positive change for people, their communities, and the environment.
Despite being a simple machine, the people at Planet Bike have always believed that the bicycle has great potential to help improve the world and the lives of the people in it. From the start, they have embraced an alternative corporate purpose which seeks to help get more people on bicycles by making communities friendlier places for the self-propelled. By donating 25% of company profits to causes that promote and facilitate bicycle usage, Planet Bike hopes to make an impact.
Social experiments aside, Planet Bike was born from the heart of a cyclist with a goal of making innovative, high quality, and practical bicycle accessories. Simply put, they strive to design and develop the best bicycle products in the world. In the company's short ten year history, they have made important product innovations within the bicycle industry. Advancements include the 4-line computer which is now a standard in the industry and the world's first self-contained HID light. Not bad for a company that ten years ago started as a one man operation. Today, while still a small company, Planet Bike continues to evolve and improve their product line with the goal of always striving to build accessories that make it easier for people to ride their bikes. Since 1996, Planet Bike's financial support of the grassroots bicycle movement has totaled $500,000. By 2010, they have made a goal to donate $1 million to organizations that are dedicated to making America a friendlier place for cyclists.

This light is quite bright. I main reason I got it is so cars can see me better but it's quite nice to have the road illuminated on dark streets. You might want to get a bigger brighter light if you plan on riding on completely unlit streets regularly but this should do the job in most cases.
I don't know how long the batteries last, but I've used my light daily for a couple of months now and it still seems to be going strong.

I purchased this light over three months ago, along with one for my wife, and we have not been disappointed. Most importantly, we can be seen with this light by others. While the light is not overly bright, it is most adequate for providing essential light while riding at night. We live in Newport, RI and the roads are in very poor condition -- with this light we are able to see any potential hazards before riding over them. I have read other reviews that criticize the mounting brackets. I can ... Read More

This is just what I was looking for. Another great Planet Bike product. The light output and battery life is fantastic. Since I take it off when I get to my destination, I always have a handy flashlight. The only downside is that I can't adjust the quick cam mount to get the grip on my handlebars that I would like. A quick wrap of electrical tape should cure the problem.

Fantastic product--As others have said, it's better for being seen than for seeing. That said, it is still very bright, and if it's completely dark will illuminate your path. Seems to be a high quality unit, with a very impressive mounting bracket. I've used it for a few hours total so far without replacing batteries.

The light is very bright, and it can even lighten the guidpost beside the street. It makes me feel more safe at night.
