I have looked for a rear light which goes on the cycle rear rack, with panniers etc, no option any other area likely will get covered.
Local shop only has two lights and one needs a dynamo so had to buy a USB charged rear lamp, however all instructions are in German, it should last 360 min on a charge and has a 300mAh Lithium-Ion battery.
It will not switch on while charging, and when on charge there is a green light which seems to stay on all the time while on charge.
The problem is some times it works all day i.e. does the 6 hours it should do, however some times within minutes of setting off it simply went off, it did not give any warning going dim, it went off. The shop have to give them their due replaced it for a new one, so the problem may be cured.
However one does not see when a rear light fails, and I wonder if I could read the instructions if there is any way to know when fully charged or getting low on charge, does the green light just say connected or should it tell on more as to state of charge?
