Knutsford had lots of the lights.
Brightness rating: ouch.
The side-visibility windows don't output much light because the LED bar is quite close to its window and there's nothing to channel the overspill to the sides (like how the LEDs on printer are generally mounted on the mainboard with plastic light channels ending at the casing).
The Mini-USB isn't aligned very well with the hole in the casing and the rubber flap only has a small pull tab and has no ridging or overlap, just relies on a flat interference fit for sealing.
The bar/post strap brackets have an extra pivot perpendicular to the bar/post, so handy for non-straight bars and slack/layback seatposts. The rear light also includes a saddle-rail bracket, but that doesn't have any rubber on the clamp and the screw goes into a plain recessed nut, no nyloc. The screw has a 3mm allen head.
3 brightness levels, constant or flash. Initial mode is always constant+lowest.
