2-Tire Pack LED Bike Wheel Lights with Batteries Included, Get 100% Brighter and Visible from All Angles for Ultimate Safety and Style

So far, I've had no issues. I got my first pack of these from a thrift store and loved them, so I got these for my road bike and have no issues. The pack I ordered here didn't come with instructions, but they were easy to remember how to install. I like that the batteries are included too. I'm an avid cyclist and work night shift, so I figured these would be a noteworthy investment (solely for safety, how they look is totally irrelevant to me, lol). I've gotten compliments on them from cars and late-night trail users. They don't interfere with tire changes either. They seem a little flimsy, but they've held up well against dirt. Ive not gotten them that wet to know for sure, though. The lights are bright enough to be seen from a distance, and definitely turn heads, which makes me feel safer in the dark. They don't weigh much or feel bulky either. I feel like a kid, but they really are practical for safety.

Easy to install, looks to be more sturdy than a different brand I had purchased a few years ago. Very bright, looks cool and definitely makes night riding safer for my kids. One thing I’ve noticed with some of the brighter colors (e.g., green, probably white) is that they can be so bright that they might reduce your night vision. I prefer to put the slightly less-bright colors (e.g., blue) on the front tires and a brighter color on the rear tires. YMMV.

I pored over a lot of reviews trying to find out what exactly Galactic was compared to Pastel. Galactic has only 2 settings: Constant On and Off. I believe this might only apply to Galactic since it's default already shifts between flashing and fading, which is really cool looking. When it's on, it has lights that fades into different colors every second for 7 seconds. The colors shift from pastel (pink, teal green, yellow, light blue) to non-pastel (red, dark blue, dark green, white). After 7 seconds, the lights will then go crazy, flashing brightly between pastel and non-pastel themes for about 7 seconds. Then it repeats. Their installation video link doesn't work, but there is a paper with instructions that was easy enough to follow (I uploaded it for anyone who didn't receive one in their box). All lights were in working order. When installing onto your tire, put the batteries in, and don't unravel the lights before starting. Leave them coiled tightly like how it came, only unravel as you start weaving them through the spokes. It's easier that way. Initially I was torn between ordering Pastel and Galactic. I ordered Galactic because I had a harder time knowing exactly what it looked like and what colors it had, I figured give it a shot. Galactic might be a bit too many colors for my personal preference, but I'll go with it for now. (EDIT- I ended up returning it for Pastel since I like those colors better... but I do wish pastel would fade and go into berserk flashing mode like Galactic). For comparison, my other half already installed a different brand of bike lights on another bike- Wheel Brightz. I rolled the dice on getting ActivLites. The other brand, WheelBrightz, chosen color is just red, and only has 2 modes (solid on, and off, no blinking). It has the light strand encased in a plastic sleeve, and the lights don't seem to be as bright as the ActivLites. WheelBrightz has a larger battery pack (square) that attaches to the spokes, and requires 3 AA batteries. ActivLite is a smaller battery pack shaped like a film cannister and is installed onto the center wheel hub (more hidden profile!). I was able to install it to the inner hub myself, with a little effort. I have 27.5" wheels (700 x32c) and each ActivLite pack was enough to line each rim completely with 2 LEDs left over. I worked carefully because the ActivLite strand is thin, bare wire, only sleeved about 8 inches where it connects to the battery pack. ActivLite seems more fun, bright and cheery than its competitor. I will keep an eye on which brand starts having problems first. I shared a picture of the thin wire and pretty much hidden battery pack in the center wheel hub for ActivLites, and showed a picture of the WheelBrightz square battery pack on the spokes with plastic encased wire, for comparison. I also posted a video showing Galactic and its colors, and Pastel in its colors.

Love the lights, and the look, only complaint is the website link they included for the website to watch the installation video was not valid. The instructions included with the product were easy to understand, but it would have been helpful to see the video as well.

Prior to this product, I had a different brand (Waybelive 2 pack LED with remote control) that had a remote control to turn lights on and off and choose color and effect variations. When using the prior product, a lot of times the lights would turn off after five minutes or less and I'd turn it back on and it would go off. Sometimes when going over a rough terrain or bump, it would not function properly. again. I didn't have the timer mode, so it was a malfunction. When I had to change the 3 AAA batteries, the inner metallic mechanism was so poor quality, it broke or would be likely to at any time. Also If I were to lose or forget the remote, there was no other way to turn the lights on. Eventually one of the wheel lights stopped working entirely. I like this Activ life product. It is very easy to turn it on and off on each tire. There is a button that works very nicely. Also, when inserting or changing the 3 AAA batteries, there is a battery compart that is pulled out so I can insert the batteries while in whatever comfortable position I choose (standing or sitting etc) not crouched over the bike and not as likely to damage any of the internal components as with other products. I'm also glad I don't need to have a remote control I could forget or lose. I ordered the lights that change colors. Also, prior to buying, I called the customer service # to see if I could reach someone, so I would know they are available in the future should a problem occur. Sure enough, I was able to speak with someone in customer service who was very helpful, informative, and reassuring. In a nutshell everything works great and very pleased.

These lights are super fun and bright. The battery pack is a little tough to strap with the rubber band thing, but I understand why since you want it to be really snug. I was able to do it, it just required a good amount of hand/finger strength! My partner helped so that makes it easier if you have a helper! You do want to make sure you wrap the wire with the lights nice and tightly around the spokes to keep it flush so they aren't wiggling around and so you have enough to go around the whole wheel (my daughter has 24" wheels).

These bike lights are a bit more complicated to fit that some other styles of bike lights. Its easier with a second set of hands for example. But it comes with a solid set of fitting instructions. Just make sure you align the internal battery compartment correctly or the lights won't work. But once they are on, they look amazing in use. The colours are great with the constant changing of color. And you don't need to be going too fast to get a good effect from them.

Really loved these little lights for a bike parade I went into, they are pretty and light up really well.

Great little item, great for Disabled people to put on their mobility scooter ( we put them on the tiller from bottom to top & around the metal seat frame ) for added safety so they can be seen better at night. Nice & bright, easy to fit, fits nicely onto self propelled wheelchair ( rear ) wheels & battery pack onto the hub, Disabled people seriously need lights specially made for their mobility aids to be seen when out & about at night.

Génial au niveau sécurité en hiver de nuit sous la pluie !! En plus les couleurs sont superbes… dommage que le chargement USB n’est pas possible, les piles c’est pas très ecolo… sinon j’adore !!

J'ai installé ces éclairages pour avoir un vélo qui détonne la nuit et pour plus visible. visible sur les côtés du vélo dans un carrefour et pas uniquement de face. Et j'ai aussi installer ces loupiotes sur mon panier avant pour relancer ma lumières que je dois tout le temps chargée ( tous les jours). Tiens des mois. Top sous la pluie. ^^.
