2 out of 5 stars Powerful light with a flimsy clip   November 26, 2008
m_deez (Los Angeles, CA, United States)
Great light for nighttime use, lasts about 4-5 hours on rechargeable 2300 mAh Duracells. The clip is garbage though. The light is very bulky due to the 4 AA batteries being housed in the body, and the clip's swivel is not adjustable. The ridiculously small screw that held the base and clip together broke after 4 months of light usage (used the light maybe twice a week).


2 out of 5 stars Good Light, Poor Mount   September 16, 2008

I bought one of these back in Sept 2007. The lights work OK (though they seem to drain the batteries faster than a Planet Bike Super Spot). My problem was that a good bounce or accidental hit to the light caused the thin molded mounting fins on the light body to break off. I went thru two lights in about two weeks. It must be a design flaw. I now have two very nice hand held flash lights.

For the money, one of the brightest. I use it as my primary and it is nice unless I get to moving fast. Today was the best testimony. Was riding at dawn. I had taken it off to use as a flashlight and had not re-mounted it solidly. It fell off, I ran over it and I looked back it was in pieces. I put the pieces back together and it works fine - a bit scratched up but works fine.

I am now in the debate to buy another and run twins or go to one of the high $$ units.

Except for the rather useless side lights that waste energy, this is a very nice system. I love the fact that this system uses generic AA batteries, and since the similar rechargeable system is a NiMh system (vs a lithium battery system), you are much better off buying this light and 4 DuraCell 2,650 NiMh AA batteries for $10.
Rechargeable NiMH Batteries, 2650mAH, AA size, 8 batteries per pack DC1500

Not only will you then have a more powerful battery system, (which you can upgrade over time) but you can buy a general-purpose charger and those batteries for less than the price difference AND power this light with "Joe's Bait & Tackle" AA cells (sold at any wide spot in the road in the developed world) in a pinch. The same AA batteries will also power your camera, camp lights, radios etc. Proprietary battery systems are to be avoided at all costs.

I think it's possible to snip one of the "legs" of the side LEDs to disable them, and thereby keep them from wasting energy. In their place I plan to use a 2nd flashing Fi:zik seat-mount red light which runs on 2032 button cell batteries.
Fizik Blin:k Bicycle Tail Light w/Integrated Clip - Silver - F1702601

I then have a backup for my rear light and the spare button cells I carry for my wireless Sigma computer, speed sensor, cadence sensor and rear light can go in that light as well. Just use some electrical tape or a zip-tie to attach it to the top or bottom of this light.

The picture and Product Description are for The new Voyager 4.0 reChargeable, NEW FOR 2008, Luxeon 1 watt LED. Batteries: NiMH battery pack, Run Time (High/Low): 6-11 hours, 60+ flash. But the top says, "Blackburn Voyager 4.0 Standard", so who knows which one you get.
