My rear red Aldi light fell off and was lost

I tried it out today in the shadows on the lanes... Not too bad. I can't remember which settings the light was on as we cycled through trying them out. View attachment 146324 View attachment 146322

Do you live in the 1940s?

He or she had waited patiently as I slowly made my way up the narrow hill, until the road widens out. I saw several old cars out on the roads that day so I assume there was a gathering somewhere. And you always meet horses

Bought the front cob light yesterday, tried it tonight, taking it back tomorrow.......
Save your money.
The thing kept switching itself off, luckily had another different front light on aswell. I didn't particularly like the beam pattern (or lack of it) either.

I've found our two pairs of them to be really good

Maybe I got a dud. Interestingly the sellotape sticker closure on the box was already cut when I opened the box, maybe a return and just chucked back on the shelf, who knows.

Anyone got a spare belt clip-style attachment from one of these they don't need? Mine was destroyed in an incident with a lorry!

Aghhh disaster struck last weekend with my rear light. For some strange reason the bracket that attaches to the saddle rails snapped during a 50 mile ride. The light ended up bouncing gracefully down the road but by a miracle it still worked. A local bike shop was good enough to give me a new Moon nebula bracket..A few days later though the light has finally given up the ghost. So just a word of warning about the seat brackets. Keep a close eye on them just incase yours may be going the same way as mine did..It's a safer bet to use the seat post bracket in my opinion. These cob lights though throw out an amazing amount of light and I really wanted another but I could justify paying out 40 odd pounds for the identical Moon Nebula so today I ended up buying a Moon Comet X cob light for £20. Spec wise it's not as bright as the Aldi one but after trying it out tonight I personally think it's just as good with the bonus of it being Cheaper , smaller and longer running times. This one though will definitely be fixed to the seat post as the bracket seems so much more stronger.

Still using the saddle rail fixing, but it's on an MTB and not getting daily commute use. I use it on setting two. They are very bright. I notice I have to press the power button once I plug in to charge, for the charge light to activate.

Just to add , even though the Aldi one is virtually identical to the Moon nebula I couldn't help to notice that the plastic saddle bracket on the Aldi,s one seems to be made out of a more brittle plastic compared to the Moon,s one. Both of them are perfectly interchangable but the moon bracket is very slightly different in design indicating the Aldi lights are not just simply re badged Moon lights
