I went for a 1.5 mile grocery run after dusk just so I could give the new lights a trial run. I'm quite disappointed in the light's performance. It has a few good qualities, but doesn't come close to justifying it's high price.Installation was easy and only requires a phillips screwdriver. It's so easy that there are no instructions included, only a four step graphic on the back of the box. Installation takes about 15-20 minutes. They do work fine with my quick release skewers, which was a slight initial concern for me.I own four bicycles and I bought this set for my neighborhood cruiser / grocery getter: an Electra Townie Euro 8D. In the past, I have bought everything from cheap $20 blinky lights, to a $380 hub-generator setup. I am very experienced with various bicycle lighting setups, and this is the worst light set I have ever encountered.This review is for the Reelight SL150, which features steady lighting (as opposed to blinking) and built-in capacitors to keep the lights burning for a short period of time after stopping, commonly referred to as a "stand light."I chose the steady SL150 over the flashing lights to compliment the battery-powered blinky I already own (SL120 flashes with stand light, SL100 flashes with no stand light). Battery powered lights are best in flashing mode. I already own the amazing Planet Bike Superflash which runs for many many hours on a single AAA battery in flash mode, with a very eye-catching pattern. I wanted a solid light for contrast and added visibility. When battery powered LED lights are left in solid-light mode they eat batteries quickly, so I bought this setup due to it's generator setup to conserve battery waste.Both the front and rear lights have two small LEDs. Modern LEDs range from dim lights that illuminate power buttons on home theatre equipment, to incredible 5watt lamps that put out as much light as a 60-watt incandescent bulb. The lights in this kit are exactly like the dim bulbs that clutter the buttons on electronic equipment. They emit light, but just enough light to be visible, not to grab your attention. The light output is similar to widely available $10 light sets.I knew these were considered "be seen" lights rather than "see-by" lights. I didn't expect these lights to actually illuminate my path. I did expect them to draw some attention from traffic, which they do not. The lights also provide almost no side visibility. I don't think side visibility was even taken into account when designing these lights.The stand light function is very poor. Stand lights should stay lit long enough to make it through a traffic light, one or two minutes. The stand light on this model only lasts about ten seconds, which is absolutely useless.I only have a few good things to say about them. I do like the mounting bracket because it makes the lights difficult to steal. I like the fact that the light housing includes a reflector in case of light failure. Mounting the lights on the axle is a good idea because a lot of rear lights don't have a good visible mounting location. The permanent-on installation is nice because it keeps my bike in legal compliance after dark without remembering to grab my lights. The lights create zero perceivable drag while in operation.Considering the fact that similar, dim battery-powered lights cost under $15/pair, these should sell for under $40. I paid $65 here at Amazon, and Amazon's price is competitive with other online retailers for this product. This is a great idea poorly executed. Hopefully some day the manufacturer will find a way to get it working better.For anyone considering this product, I recommend that you spend a lot less on a Planet Bike superflash and a good quality led flashlight that can be mounted on the handlebars. A setup like that can be bought for under $50 and will give you rear visibility of about 1/4-mile and usable illumination of your path.If you are sold on generator lighting, spend the $160 for a good bottle generator setup or $350 on a good hub generator setup.Spending $65 on this set is not does not save any money. When you compare the price to quality generator setups it seems like a great value, but comparing this to a B&M generator setup is like comparing a Wal Mart bike to a fully outfilled touring bike. ### ⭐⭐⭐ Thoughtful minimalist Euro safety device, w.o customer service. *by J***T on Reviewed in the United States πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ on May 15, 2009* The title says it all: whoever DESIGNED this was very crafty and ingenious, but the company website and instructions are little more than pictographs, and contacting them took a week-whoever replied doubtless had worse English than mine! I have no idea about the longevity of these items, nor the veracity of the manufacturer claim that "adding additional magnets will make your lights brighter:, but I doubt these should be taken to be seen as anything more than the bicycle equivalent of daytime running lights on a car. That said, it would be interesting if someone who has added more magnets noticed a real increase in intensity. You can e mail me at jjinhart@yahoo.com if you've done so. Other than that, the only warning is to make sure you don't put the magnets on the same side of the rear wheel as the chain/cassette, as they end up on top of the latter, impeding shifting. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great product, difficult to attach *by R***D on Reviewed in the United States πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ on January 26, 2011* I really didn't want to have to mess with replacing batteries, so this seemed like the best solution. I like the concept, and the product seems top be really well made. The trouble came with installing them, however. They are designed to fit over the spokes of your wheel, but the spokes on mine were too close together to allow them to fit! The lights have to be at a specific location, and the closer you put the magnets to the hub of the wheel, the tighter the spokes get! I ended up removing a spoke from each wheel to make room, then they worked great. I don't know if it's just my wheels in particular, and as I said they worked great after a difficult installation, so 4 stars it is. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/10688383-reelight-sl150-steady-compact-bicycle-headlight-and-tail-light-set](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/10688383-reelight-sl150-steady-compact-bicycle-headlight-and-tail-light-set) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Kingdom* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-06-03*
