Great bike headlights and tail lights. Great products w/great customer support.

I now own 2 VIS 1000 headlights, one VIS 500 headlight and two VIS 180 pro taillights. They are high quality, very bright and easy to use with no complicated features switching between modes. I lost the screw that keeps the headlight from slipping out of the mount. I called customer support and they quickly sent me a new screw at no charge. I do suggest using a product such as Loctite Removable Threadlocker for nuts and bolts when installing/reinstalling the screw so it won't work its way out. I have had other bike lights fail due to moisture getting into the light. I trust that this won't happen with these Light and Motion lights since the company also makes lights for divers. My only suggestion for improvement would be to make the cover for the headlight charging port permanently attached to the headlight. It's small and could be easily lost.

Great customer service

I had this light repaired under warranty two years after purchasing. I was happy that Light and Motion honored their warranty and swiftly serviced my lights for free. thanks!

VIS 500 is great - customer service is even better

I've been using my VIS 500 for commuting in the city 80 min/day 3 or 4 days a week. I find I can reliably charge it once a week and use it all week easily, and sometimes well into the next week. I use the pulse mode, since I'm more concerned about being seen than seeing where I'm going. It's plenty bright at night, and it survives being dropped, rained on, and all the things you'd expect it to be subjected to riding around Chicago.

It's a great light - but even better is that when I messed up charging it, I got in touch with customer service and they replaced it. !!within 5 days!! No hassle, friendly service. I wish I needed a lot more bike lights!
