   It’s a Bit Bulky, But So Cool
   The SEEMEE 300 is a capable and bright light with multiple functions and outstanding battery life. I have other high-quality lights (NiteRider) and this one rates as well as those, with the caveat being that this light is quite bulky, but with the kind of battery life it packs, I can’t complain. It’s not like I’m a professional racer who’s shaving off grams of weight from my bike for competitiveness. So, a little bigger light isn’t too big of a deal, it’s not distracting and it doesn’t really compromise aerodynamics (again, see sentence about NOT being a pro racer). The price of the light is competitive with upper-end brands, and I’m a firm believer of “You get what you pay for…”. I’m quite happy with this light, and again the battery life is proving to be spectacular! I’ve owned it for over a week and after its initial charging, and 90 to 130 minute bike rides 6 days a week, it’s not showing any need of recharging. Though after today’s ride, I suppose I will just because I have to charge my headlight and head unit anyhow.Color me impressed. With multiple pattern flashes and settings, this tail light is suited for 99% of the riders out there who care about being seen by others and by drivers. I would purchase this light again if I needed to, very much worth the cost! Five stars.

   Nice light
   Very bright. The down light casts a large red glow all around the bike. Very bright on high. Smaller then I thought but works great.

   Great, not best but happy with purchase
   The instructions lack clarification on what mode is what. Wish it didn’t have the small led that presses down, or a mode with out it. That way I could use it sideways. Really wish it was as simple as the front . Overall it’s bright, happy with purchasing power. Execution is just not great

   This really shines
   I put this on my wife’s e-bike. The brake light feature is cool although so sensitive that if she slows down at all or stops pedaling it lights. Still better that then not at all. Very bright even in the daytime. One of the best I’ve seen.

   NOT RECOMMENDED: Good light but there are two issues
   Update:Received replacement and it has the EXACT SAME PROBLEM: It does NOT switch to SMART DAYLIGHT MODE, EVER! Burns through the battery before the end of my daytime ride.If I shine a flashlight on the face of the device it will switch to Daylight mode until the flashlight is removed and then it returns to Night Mode with a dimmer flash (not sufficient for riding in daylight) and the dang bottom LED stays constantly on. Not enough sensitivity in the design!!!First Review:It’s sufficiently bright, but I’m having two issues that others have mentioned:- The brake light timing is TOO brief – basically just one brief flash.- The “Smart” mode transition from nighttime to daytime does NOT work. It stays in night mode and burns out the battery faster. If I hold a bright flashlight on the face of the device, it will switch, but as soon as I remove the light, it goes back to nighttime. This is in the southern New Mexico full, midday sunshine. It doesn’t get much brighter than this.I’m returning and replacing it in hopes the next one will be more sensitive.

   “Retina Searing” Should Be In The Description
   It has five modes (Low, High, Flash, ECO, Smart). Each one has a “smart” functionality, meaning it uses the ambient light sensor to change brightness according to the mode. It all works just about like it should. After trying out all the modes in a suburban setting, I would up leaving it in “smart” when riding solo, and ECO when in a group. In an urban or rural setting, I might choose different settings. The battery life is “more than a week”; actually for me it is “about 3 weeks”. I order the optional clip mount to attach it to a loop on my seat bag ($7 extra). Worked perfectly.

   You will be seen
   I bought this when the sun started going down a little bit earlier and I was riding at night. I do some writing on streets this thing really lights up and the light focuses on the street puts a little red bubble around. You is a nice addition you can be seen from quite a distance very safe would definitely recommend.

   This light has some very opinionated design decisions in the software, and to the product folks out there….if you’re gonna be opinionated in your design, you’re gonna get opinionated reviews.Buckle up, ’cause it’s gonna get a little rough.The tl;dr: Excellent hardware that forces high power consumption on you, whether you want it or not, so that instead of up to 11hrs of battery life, you get 2-3 when riding in darkness. (And yes, this is a problem – I don’t want to have to charge the battery every single day.)On the plus side: USB-C charging, excellent battery capacity; good battery life* in the mode I use most frequently; many modes; mode memory; quarter-twist mount.Now for that asterisk on the “good battery life”: What I want out of a bike taillight is something that flashes stupid-bright so that the doofus in the car coming up behind me looking at their phone has something catch the corner of their eye and get their attention. And this does have an excellent daytime-bright flash mode. All good so far.The problem, though, is that once it starts to get even the slightest bit dark outside, it switches to this mode where it pulse-glows out the back and shines a bright red light directly to the pavement.At no time in my life have I worried about being hit by a car coming at me from below the surface of the pavement. I get that “provide visibility from the side” thing, but guess what – you extend the lens around the side of the housing a centimetre or so and that 300lm flash (that you turned off in favour of some slowly pulsing glow) gets people’s attention.”But it’s too bright at night”, you say? Impossible. Nothing is “too bright” for a bike to get noticed, particularly when it’s red. Goal #1 through #20 is “get noticed”.So, not only does the light go from a bright flashing “HERE I AM!!!” flash to a dull slowly pulsing light is that there’s now TWO LED’S soaking up battery power, so the runtime of the light goes from 11hrs to maybe 3hrs at best. Yay (insert sarcasm emoji here).And if/when the battery does run low, instead of doing what it can to extend that runtime by….you know,….GOING TO THE FLASH MODE THAT LASTS FOR 11 HOURS, it instead glows even brighter so that you notice that your light is running low. Which….ok, great — the light let you know. But what can you do about it for the remaining hour of riding until you get home…? Nothing.Just accept the fact that your light is gonna go out sooner than necessary.And then it has a brake light function: In theory, you hit the brakes on your bike, and the light shines brighter. There’s no wire/sensor like there is on a car, of course, so it has to rely on some electronic sensor. So, I realize this isn’t easy. But come on: If you’re riding at like 35kph on flat road, peddling at 90rpm or whatever, if your speed varies between 35.8 and 35.5….the brake light should not come on. And yet it does – again just absolutely KILLING the battery life.The best part of all of these “features” is that MagicShine makes absolutely none of it configurable. If you WANT to just keep the low-power super-bright flasher going once it gets dark (and by “dark”, I mean roughly half an hour before sunset on a clear day – why?!), instead of the light switching to the highest power consumption mode, well, go buy another light. Because this one won’t let you.So I did.In short, this is a great light with TERRIBLE software.

    Very well made light that works as stated. Saddle mount is a great idea and works very well. Have recommended to people I go riding with.

    とても明るく、バイクの周りの地面もよく照らされる。 車からの視認性が非常に高く、これは最も重要な機能である。ブレーキ機能はオフになっている。 頼りないギミックである。 安全性を最優先するなら、買うべきテールライトです。Very bright, and the ground around the base of bike it well lit. Very visible to cars, which is the most important feature.I have the braking feature is turned off. It is an unreliable gimmick. If safety is paramount to you, this is the taillight you should buy.

    A rear bike light is all about being seen by other road users and this provides it better than anything I’ve ever used or seen. This includes projecting red light on the ground and rear wheel. Built to a high standard and easy to fit and remove for charging.

    眩しいくらいだから、最弱モードで、点滅で使っている、2～3回は充電なしで行けるし、何より、下を照らす、車幅灯が良い。軽いので、リヤはサス無しなら、重いタイプは壊れる、サドルの下に引っかけて、荒れた路面でも壊れていない、軽いからかな～～その割に目立ち、明るい！！
