Ruffwear, Beacon Safety Light for Dogs, Clear Lake

Very bright and durable. Battery life is good too.

Obviously I bought this light for the dog, but I found myself using it also. Extra visibility while running or biking. When my usual lights run out of power this light keeps going. I had this on blink for over 8 hours and it still wasn't dead. Even during daylight I feel safer while biking with an active light. The ring on top isn't very reliable, but the clip on it's back hasn't given me issue. It has 3 different colors and a variety of settings. I like my lights rechargeable, and not have to worry about watch batteries that cost almost half the cost of the light itself. Even though my dog stays on leash. I still want him visible when it's dark.

I've been using the same Ruffwear light, on our dog for four years. They are well made , bright and lightweight.

I absolutely love Ruffwear and own many dog accessories by this brand. This light is good, but a bit disappointing. The light has some nice features, like three colors (green, blue, and red) and three modes (solid, rapid blinking, and slow glow and fade) for each color. The light is easy to charge and has a good spring type mechanism on the back to attach to a harness, leash, or nearly anywhere. The LEDs are extremely bright, with good battery life. However there are some negative points. First, the LEDs are so bright and not angled well, so they are almost blinding when you are out in the dark and they create light pollution. You obviously can see the light, but it greatly reduces visibility of everything else, which to me is potentially more dangerous than not having the light. I used this to take my dog out to relieve himself late at night and I could not see the ground in front of me. The only setting I found acceptable was the red light on slow pulse, which had less glare and is probably less disruptive for wildlife. I wish there was a brightness adjustment setting, for example only having one or two LEDs lighted versus all of them. Next, the power button is tiny and difficult to operate. You literally have to press it hard with a fingernail to get the light to turn on or change modes. I understand this design might be intentional so the light doesn't turn off accidentally, in case you are using it as a beacon/locator. Next, you press and hold the button to turn it on. I found that sometimes it came on on one color/mode and sometimes it didn't come on at all and then when I clicked it a second time a different color/mode came on. Thus, it seems sometimes it skips some of the light schemes in the sequence. Finally, the shape is cute but not the best for actual visibility. Over all, this would make a good beacon light in an emergency kit and for adventuring. But on most settings it is too bright and the bulbs are not well aligned/angled for every day applications in my opinion.

Easy and watet roof gr8 for walking at night with your puppers

Great light. Very bright and love how it’s waterproof. Might be a little pricey but works way better than the cheaper ones we have tried on Amazon. Also very well built

I know swimmers are not the audience for this product nor is open water swimming the intended use. However, these little lights are great for open water swimming. The battery life is great. They are sturdy and waterproof. The clip that is intended for a dog collar works fine holding the light to goggle straps. The different light patterns and colors are useful for night time swimming. This is by no means a criticism of the product, but if the light had a color cycling mode (where the light cycles through various colors continuously) that would be fun. I don't know if color cycling would be good for dogs or dog owners....

Update: This light is absolute trash. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY. It is now completely dead and will not charge. It didn't even last a year, and I didn't even use it much over the summer. ******* The light itself is nice. I like the size and function of it, it is easy to put on and remove from my dog's harness or pack. Which is good, because I have to do this daily to charge it. The battery only lasts like 45 mins. I dont know if have a bad one, but I definitely wouldn't recommend this to someone at this price.

Ideale Leuchte wenn man neuere Geschirre von Ruffwear mit der entsprechenden Lasche besitzt. Die Leuchte lässt sich da super befestigen und durch den Federmechanismus des Clips auch sicher, ohne dass sich dieser von alleine löst. Das Licht ist hell genug, ohne störend zu sein wenn der Hund kurz vor einem an der Leine geht. Die möglichen Farben und Modi gefallen gut, ebenfalls die Laufzeit. Habe den Aufhänger Ring abgeknipst, da ich ihn nicht brauche und er bei meiner Art der Befestigung störte, sich anders nicht entfernen liess.

This is a very bright light. If you have a ruff wear harness it has its own loop for the light but can easily be attached to other harnesses or collars. The light has several colours Red Green blues and can either be steady or flashing. It recharges quickly via usb. It is bright especially on the green and blue settings

ラフウェアのハーネスにぴったりフィットです。1回のチャージでとても何週間使えます。

Tiene buena pinta. El tiempo hablará de la durabilidad de los pateriales y la batería. De momento es perfecto.

Acheté il y a un peu plus de deux semaines c’est parfait avec la nuit qui tombe tôt et les promenades matinales. Le clips à plat se décroche effectivement, pour remédier à ce problème j’ai passé le collier dans la boucle metallic plate et j’ai passé un porte clef accroché à la boucle ronde de tel sorte qui ne le perde pas. En deux semaines je ne l’ai chargé qu’une seule fois. Je recommande.
