Fast charge!

I have several Light and Motion headlights and bought this one for winter commutes, which often require a mid-day charge while at work. This model fills up much more quickly than my other ones-approximately 90 minutes vs several hours. The battery seems to conserve its charge in extreme cold better than my other older models. Otherwise, it's the same tried and true, user-friendly, and understated Light and Motion design.

Thank you for your feedback.

Best headlight I have ever used

The flashing sequence can be seen for a great distance- bought them for all the cyclists in the family. Excellent quality- sturdy too.

solid light with bright focused beam

I deliberated between this light and the Light and Motion 1000. I ended up with this one because (a) I don't think you really need 1000 lumens in a city environment and (b) because it matched my bike better. I've been really happy with it. It comes with a GoPro attachment which I mounted to the bottom of my K-Edge computer mount.

Thank you for your feedback.

Very Compact Light

This light is very compact...moreso then most other lights I've seen. The brightness is more than you would ever need unless you are biking at 20 mph. The side lights are bright for their small size. The quick charge takes about 45 minutes to recharge. The only thing I don't like is the lights daytime slow pulse mode. A flashing light is much more visible than this one. That is why I gave this light a 4 rating.

Thank you for your feedback.

Solid, durable, and long-lasting battery life make this a winner!

I bought this light as a daily special and I am so thankful I did. I have used it for a couple of months now as my primary light for night dirt roadie and trail group rides. Our rides are two hours long and the battery indicator light is still green at the end of my rides (I run it on low power, which is still more than adequate for a safe illumination level).

The light feels solid and durable (no cheap plastic feel) and it fits securely to my handlebars.

I would highly recommend this to any of my biking friends!

Thank you for your feedback.

Let there be light!

This light is used for all early morning commutes before the sun comes up. It's so bright and the angle of light is so wide, that its like driving a car. An excellent light.

Thank you for your feedback.

Dependable excellent commuter light

Use this light 4-5 days per week for morning commute in dark. Worked well all winter. Good light pattern and

Removal for charging and bracket are excellent. All micro USB charging cables are a pain to me. Have to pay too much attention to how I put it in.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great light!

I am very happy with this light. Seems brighter than 800 lumens and others have commented that as well. I little hard to slip on and off of the receiver but I will probably get better with practice. It was a steal.

Super lights

Super lights, best mounting system around, so easy to put on and take off, easy to use, great light pattern, bright and light. I use on helmet, on bar , mounts on fork etc. I have 4 of these and they are super nice, esp for the price. Nice to have the side lights as well. Very well designed product.

Thank you for your feedback.

Let there be light, and there was light!

I used Urban 800 everyday when I came back from work.

It was very difficult to ride with other product. So I decided to buy this.

Urban 800 is so easy to attach and detach. Therefore, it is free to be stolen.

Moreover, I also used this for camping and my house under dark condition.

I strongly recommend this if you ride at evening and night.

Thank you for your feedback.

Weaponized flashlight

As big as my thumb, but the brightest light I have yet. I had to give up on nightrider lights and glad to find Light and Motion. The lights are more compact, brighter, easier to aim and the mounting system actually works. The high setting is too bright, you'll want to point it at the ground or your bike unless blinding someone is your goal. Which is certainly doable.

The 800 is almost too much for commuting, but perfect for fast dark rides on empty roads.

Thank you for your feedback.

Poor battery life

I like everything about this light for commuting except the battery life. They claim 1.5hrs at 800 lumens but Ive never gotten close to that. My commute is 20mins each way and I have to charge it nearly every day.

Thank you for your feedback.

Great light - one out of two dead though

Love this light, especially the flashing mode that does not flash on/off but goes between high and low (I assume this is so it is legal in places were flashing lights are not legal?).

However, I bought two and one intermittently and regularly just didn't work. Sent it back to L&M and ordered another. I am sure I will get a refund since I have dealt with their customer service in the past and it is nothing short of stellar.

Thank you for your feedback.

Very Bright Light

Very bright. Does not have a strobe option but has pulsating. Not quite the same. Lights up the road really well at night. Attaches to the handlebars with a strong rubber strap. Need to pull with some force to attach securely. I like the light a lot although I prefer the way that my previous cateye light attached to the handlebars. Easier to quickly remove and replace. Charges quickly.

Thank you for your feedback.

It does charge quickly, and is as good as they get for 800 lumens.

Living in Alaska, I'm one of many bikers who feel I cannot spend a lot of time indoors in winter just because it's dark and I can't see the moose. I enjoyed using a Light And Motion helmet light for my Trans Am ride in 2015.

With the knowledge of their quality, I found this small and mighty light source to add to the fat bike. Many of us here use one light on the bike aimed at where the front wheel will track, and another on the helmet that can be guided as needed to see to the side of that cone of brightness.

This Urban 800 fills in the wheel track very nicely and I also enjoy the other modes. I do prefer a flash mode to a pulse mode scares off dogs better but I've read that flash is not legal in some countries. Also, I like that I can quickly take this light off the bike when I lock it outside a business and just tuck the light into my pocket. The switch has withstood a variety of elements from cold, to freezing rain, to a hard snow squall and it keeps working fine. The small amber side lights are a good thought, though I don't know that I have needed them so far. I do like them on my helmet light, so it's a natural progression.

For the record, the brightness is not enough for fast night time singletrack, but I don't do that so much any more. If you're looking to scream through the trees at night, you're going to want adjustable 2000 lumens.

Thank you for your feedback.
