good little light, low weight, can be used in conjunction with a good bar mounted light for night rides, not enough on its own for cross country riding
I brought this product as a Christmas present,the Little Man loved it!!! He was falling on the floor and bumping his head and we all knew he was safe!!! I think he like the helmet better than the Spiderman Scooter. Thanks for a great product and wonderful fit.

I really like this helmet. A previous reviewer said that the size runs small and that was fine with me because I was looking for a good helmet for my 6 yr old daughter when I bought her roller skates. This one is perfect. It's made better and looks much safer than the regular bicycle helmet she was wearing. This makes me feel better when she is roller skating, riding her bicycle or riding her scooter. It's worth the money, really cute, and the fit is comfortable so she doesn't complain about having to wear it.
I did a lot of research before deciding to buy this light. There are many appealing features: it is bright with excellent side visibility, it uses LEDs (energy efficient), and it uses AA batteries instead of proprietary rechargeable batteries. The handle bar mount fit my bike easily and it is easy to remove to prevent theft. I've been using it for months and have been happy with it.
There are a few problems, though. Due to the placement of the light switch, if you ever stow this light in your bag, it might accidently turn on and drain the battery. (The Planet Bike Super Flash has an ingenious way to work around that, albeit it is a rear light) Despite the convenient and easy to use handle bar mount, if this light ever falls off your bike ...

I have two Cateye TL-LD1100s mounted to my bike rack and use them on the alternating flashing modes for commuting. I have had several comments that people can see me from 1/3 to 1/2 of a mile away. I think this is the best light for battery life and brightness (LED). You would have to go to a dyno to get something brighter. Have gotten several months worth of battery life, using the lights approximately 3-4 hours, 3-5 days a week. No issues with water, although I have never gotten them really soaked/submerged.
This is great helmet. It is high quality and as nice as some I have looked at for twice the price. According to my 11 yr old son...it is also "very cool". It came with a decal pack that allowed him to customise it. I am very pleased with this purchase.
the topeak ufo light looks like a great idea, but the installation and end use is a bit hokey.
the 270 degree LED broadcast of light is good, but not all the LEDs emit at the same intensity. The yellow LEDs are worthless.
Mounting the UFO light to your Topeak rack is a design in engineering failure. The UFO light clip, (which you receive when you buy the light) just slides over the Topeak bike rack adapter, (which you receive when you buy the rack). It is not a solid mount. The clip broke off the adapter after riding over some railroad tracks, which i do very cautiously on my hybrid bike.
If you are concerned with image, the set up looks hokey. If you don't care, get some superglue or make your own clip/adapter set up.

I haven't been using this as much because you have to recharge it each use. Includes a charging system that drains juice from any standard 1.5v battery, AA's, C-cells.
