Question:	How do I turn on the headlight

User questions & answers

Question:	Does it slip in the rain
Answer:	I didnt have any slipping problems in the rain. The light works great and maintains the level of brightness even when riding slow.
Question:	Will this work with a mens hybrid bike having large tires? Is the bracket long enough for large tires
Answer:	Thank you for your questions. We did not test the headlight on a mens hybrid bike with big tires before. If the diameter of front fork is less than 1.65 inch(this is the key point I think), the bracket could be mounted. So, the bracket should be long enough to work once the light can touch the tire.
Question:	Can the light be mounted away from the generator? Like instead of right next to it, in the middle of the fork
Answer:	For DL09 dynamo bike light , the light and generator are an integral one. We do not suggest mount them separately.
Question:	Does the dynamo bicycle light work on e bikes
Answer:	Hi Dear, thank you for your question. This dynamo bicycle light does NOT work on e bikes. We have E bike lights, but do not sell on Amazon. Sorry.

Question:	Can it be used on a fat tire bicycle
Answer:	As long as it fits on top of the tire
Question:	What kind of bulbs is in the headlamp and tail
Answer:	It is halogen lamp
Question:	Are the switches included in the light set or are the switches a different product. Is a switch required to run the light set
Answer:	There is no switch.And do not need a switch to run the light set. The friction between the bicycle tire and the generator turn the light on. The bike turns and the lights come on,the bike stopped and the lights went out. The wire is long enough to connect the headlight and tail light,
Question:	Can this put out 14v to charge a 12v battery

User questions & answers

Question:	at 6mphhow what would the voltage be
Answer:	12volts
Question:	Where are the positive and negative connections
Answer:	Sorry - typical of most magnetos (which is what ALL bike generators are) there is no "positive" or "negative" because all magnetos produce AC. The shell/mounting screw of the magneto is one terminal, on the bottom are two more terminals, 1 6w for headlight (usually labeled H) and one 3w for taillight (usually labeled T).If you plan on upgrading to LED, be aware that AC vs DC and polarity may matter, depending on whether the LED you buy has circuitry built in to handle these factors.
Question:	What is the maximum and minimum speed that this needs to light up and not burn out
Answer:	I never used it yet, it is made out of cheap material, never buy generic one again, you cannot even install to your bike tightly.
Question:	will it fit a ross europa three bike? older model and is the light metal or plastic

User questions & answers

Question:	HI, what is the warranty for the product
Answer:	Hi , one year warranty for all our products .
Question:	How secure is the mounting brackets? Will they hold up with heavy mountain trails
Answer:	They are secure, but to make me feel more secure, I use the simple and additional rubber band system. The way you could attache a cheap dollar store mini flashlight to the handle bar if needed. It's very simple. You can find a couple of Youtube videos that also show a person how to do that in 3 seconds. I don't always ride on a flat smooth surface. Sometimes I go down a dirt road or trail. Not to thrash or extreme ride, but because it's part of a very long trail to get to other places by hiking, walking, or biking.
Question:	Does the battery get sufficiently charged with the solar panel, or is it necessary to plug it in
Answer:	The solar panel automatically charges the battery in the sun. No action required.
Question:	Is the brightness of the front light bright enough
Answer:	Yes , it works great, I can see the whole street when it opens. And the taillight is also bright,It makes it easy for me to be seen.

User questions & answers

Question:	Where can you get replacement straps
Answer:	Doubtful. It doesn't cover all of my mountain bile.
Question:	Is it water proof
Answer:	Having never been near a beach, I have no real idea how big a beach towel is. I am confident a large bath towel would fit inside fine, but I cannot say for sure about a “beach” towel.
Question:	what is the output of these lights in lumens
Answer:	In my opinion, only the very smallest laptop would fit inside the bag; at an angle. Something like a large tablet would fit fine.
Question:	how long does the charge last
Answer:	The shoulder strap is for using the bag like a backpack....I threw mine out because I only leave the bag on the bike.
