## Description

THE BICYCLE LIGHT REINVENTEDTHE ORFOS FLARES Inspired by modern LED car lights, the Orfos Flares give cyclists a high visibility glow just like a car has, creating what CNET described as a "force field of light around your bike".OUR STORY After years of being frustrated with low quality and under-performing bike lights, Pete Clyde, a Seattle cyclist and Electrical Engineer set out to make cycling safer. His goal: to design the best possible bike light with the latest, bleeding edge technology. After years of design and testing, Pete launched his lights on a crowdfunding campaign earning over 800% funding, and the Orfos Flares were born.  Since then, Orfos has become a leading, innovative brand in the cycling community, offering enhanced safety for cyclists around the world.

    I really liked this light while I had it
  

*by H***E on Reviewed in the United States on June 3, 2016*

I really liked this light while I had it. I commute on my road bike in Denver through most the year, and I'm an aggressive rider that often rides in the flow of traffic. Accordingly, I wanted something that was as bright as a car or motorcycle headlight that could be seen from a long way out. On that front, this light really delivered. It was the brightest tail light I have ever owned, it had great diffuse 180 degrees of visibility. The battery was awesome (albeit a bit of overkill), and the wet weather protection absolutely unmatched. The only real complaint I had about the light itself was that the lowest setting was a bit bright for use in a pace line (a lower setting would have been appreciated by those behind me).Unfortunately, this light failed where most others do--the mounting system was awful. I didn't like the magnetic system to begin with, as I didn't like having the magnet permanently zip tied to the seat post of my road bike. My solution to that problem was to buy a giant bag of zip ties and cut it off when I didn't need the light. For a $120 dollar light, there really should be a better solution. I also felt nervous throwing the light (and it's super-powerful magnet) into my backpack with my laptop and other electronics.In any case, a couple of weeks ago, I got home from my evening commute an realized the light was no longer attached to the magnetic mount. I have no idea where the light popped off the magnetic mount--probably in heavy traffic as I didn't hear it hit the ground. Aside from the fact that I am not out $120, I don't know how long I was riding in the dark without my primary light. Not exactly confidence inspiring to be looking down all the time to make sure your light is still there. And yes, I did have the light mounted vertically on my seat post.I liked the functionality of the light so much, I've toyed with the possibility of getting another and making a proper mount for it with some go-pro hardware and some epoxy. Ultimately, it's probably not worth the cost and effort with so many other alternatives out there.

*by F***O on Reviewed in the United States on January 27, 2016*

Everyone hypes up their bike lights a bit, or a lot, and sometimes I'm pleasantly surprised to find a product lives up to it's hype. The Orfos Red Flare is one of those products that will wow you with being exactly as described.This tail light is ingenious. It delivers on the output and makes you wonder why you suffered with lesser products for so long. If you're commuting at night, you've probably got thousands invested in your bike, clothing lighting, etc. Not spending a cool hundred for a rear light that makes you as visible as a car from both the rear and side is the definition of insanity. Blinking lights are difficult to track, and most have an output of a tenth of this light, but typically concentrated in a single LED, which can also overload a driver's vision as they approach you.No matter what light you use, put it in solid glow mode, but if you can, add this light, you won't be disappointed.+1 Solid Construction+1 Massive Output+1 Great distribution of light+1 Greater than 180º visibility+1 Fast USB Charging+1 Long Life LiFePO4 Battery, 1500 recharge cycles!+1 Works great in cold (I've used to 8ºF), no battery life or output change!+1 Magnetic Mount is versatile

    Great all around light.
  

*by T***Y on Reviewed in the United States on November 1, 2015*

Very nice light for riding.  It's not directional, so it's not as attention getting in the day as some of the hi power LED flashers (Bontrager Flare R for example) but it is great for evening/night use.  The mounting system pretty much depends on being mounted vertically instead of horizontally for the strongest mount attachment of the light. A different mount system would allow more mounting options (it was hard finding a good mount setup for the Catrike Road, ending up with me getting a T-Post mount to put it on so it would be vertical as we had it bounce off when horizontal once).The button for power/settings takes a little getting used to.  I have no problems with it, but my wife (who has MS) has some difficulty with it sometimes.A video of the Bontrager Flare R and the Orfos is at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eMoFuUXTQ6QOne of the Orfos Flare at a distance - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tdqNB3pO4Xo
