Cygolite Metro

Recomiendo para aquel que busca una buena iluminación

Bought four of these over the last few years and they’re very bright, and which are easy to charge and also very easy to set up on either the bike or a helmet.I usually bring two lights though on any ride that last more than 40 minutes because the batteries at full charge never make it to the duration clean by the manufacturer. This is consistent across all four of the lights that I’ve had at various output levels. My brightest light is 950 lm and it lasts only 40-50 minutes.Also I’ve had two of these lights now die completely outside of Warranty. About 2 years in each case. There’s no way to change the battery so they go in the garbage. I don’t like to buy stuff which can’t be recycled or repurposed or fixed and the only reason I do so with these is that they are cheaper than alternatives and when they’re working they’re great lights. Two of them together riding on forest trails lights everything up nicely so I can see where I’m going and it seems to work well in any temperature. But I wish the manufacture would deal with this battery issue and make it possible to replace the batteries after they stop holding charge.No I use these several times a week so that probably shortens the lifespan a little bit, but by comparison I have a good light from another company that has lasted me for four years now and still holds about 80% of the original charge. However I still recommend these lights because they’re well constructed, easy to attach, easy and quick to charge, and most importantly they throw a ton of light which is really important especially for biking at night.

I haven't actually had an opportunity to cycle with this light yet but it is very bright and lights up a wide arc of my garden. It seems very robust and the mount is secure on my bike. I've been looking for a light that actually lights up the path or road in front of me, rather than just providing a light for cars to see me, and this appears to do that well as far as I can tell from walking in my garden with it.

For long rides at night under a moonless sky, this isn't your light. Mainly, the battery will wear out in a few hours.But for just about everything else, the Cygolite Metro 1100 checks all the boxes.It's light. Cheap. Durable. And powerful.The bracket works reasonably well, with included shims, but I still long for a stem attachment (I would buy separate). It's hard to keep the light tracking level after you hit the rough stuff. And by rough, I'm talking about the kind of hits that sting. Most riding does not affect the position.I recommend these lights primarily for commuters, but I use mine for much more. It's great "insurance" if your ride ends up taking long than you expected, and you have to pedal home in the dark.I also use this light for winter fat biking, paired with a helmet mounted Metro 360. This is a decent setup.It charges with a MIcro USB, a common plug-in these days, and comes with an included cable. And this one charges a lot faster than the 360 I have.The battery does seem to last as advertised, and I normally run it on strobe for daytime, and the highest setting for night riding.I do see lots of these on the racks when I commute. Or out in the wild. They're common because of all the boxes they check.If you're on the fence about this light, buy it. You won't be disappointed.

High quality bright light, user-friendly mounting, good durability, well-priced.
