FAQ

Why won't my light turn on? The power button just blinks red.

Your light is in travel lock out mode. Light & Motion incorporates this feature into all of our lights for storage and travel because there is nothing more frustrating than to pull your "charged" light out of the drawer or bag only to find it discharged.

To unlock, press and hold the power button & the mode button simultaneously for about 4 seconds. The indicator light will blink green 3 times.

To lock, when the light is on, press and hold the power button (clear) & the mode button (black) simultaneously for about 4 seconds. The indicator light will blink red 3 times. Now it is safe to store your light.

What is paceline mode and why would I use it?

Paceline mode activates only the amber side marker lights. It is best used when riding with groups.

Exquisitely bright and great flashing pattern -- solid light!

I've had two iterations of this light -- one of the originals from almost 10 years ago, and now the updated version after my bike and lights were stolen from my apartment. I'm impressed! The new pulse flashing pattern followed by a slow wave blink is eye-catching and enhances visibility. This and the overall build quality add to the value of the light, which is only further enhanced by the more competitive price than when I bought my original Vis-180. While I can see where others are reporting issues, these concerns have never born out in my regular use (daily commute of 15 miles and weekend rides) on the original or updated light. Highly recommend and only the most positive experience when working with customer service to replace a battery for my Seca Enduro.

Great little light

I have been using this for a couple years now, and haven’t had the issues that other reviewers had. It is bright, lasts a long time, and although I bought the aero attachment, I stopped using it because the standard one works fine. Now that I have written that I haven’t had issues I am sure to rip off the on-off button on the next ride.

button pops off

the light has a major design flaw as another writer stated. "The power button is a rubber piece that's similar to the removable charging port cover, when the power button rubber piece is removed (accidentally or otherwise) it can be removed accidently quite easily too! It is useless then. you can't turn it on, even with a paper clip or nail or some other pointy device. a $69 waste of $!

Great Rear Light, almost

I like the quality L&M put into their lights, but not a fan of having to go back to buy a different mount for an aero seat post. Very bright, four (4) modes with long runtimes. Tested it during a rainy ride and discovered the power cover was open (unknown reason) when I reached my destination. Light was still working, but now there is moisture inside the lens cover. Still, I would recommend it to others.

Quality

Great for making yourself visible. It is too bright or too dim for group rides though. If you’re in the front of the peloton the yellow pace line mode is required to not blind the rider behind you. If in the rear the pace line is not visible enough for approaching traffic.
