Have been running a set of these Moon Comets for about 2 months now. Run them mostly on mid constant or high flashing and get a week of commuting and weekend fun times out of them between charges. Yes they are fairly bright, but its the intensity over a larger area (the band of red/white plastic lens) that makes them visible. You get loads of super bright but super flarey LED lights which are totally blinding when your in the direct path of them, but next to bugger all at any other angle, so you get cars pissed off at you + not much side visibility. Whereas these have a very broad viewing angle, probably ~130 degrees.
Unlike every other commuter type light I've had there is no sign of water ingress or corrosion despite the shitty weather.
retail is £60 which I think is about £15 too high IMO, but I paid trade so for that I'm very happy with them.
