Heat and ordered. Can't go wrong at that price although depending on your route, you might need brighter. Should be fine for me.
Yes, but for some reason the same front model as the rear one in that pack is only £4.99. It's worth noting the rear light is not the 'Pro' like the front which is why I bought the front only - with the only difference being one is white and the other is red!
Anyway, 'being seen' lights are just what I need. Thanks OP - quality, branded USB chargeable lights are hard to come by.
And from that "Lezyne - Engineered Design 1 year ago
The KTV Pro is a "to been seen light" only. It is not a headlamp. It was designed so cars and other riders can see you. Hope that helps!"
And after that video don't think I will, it doesn't seem very bright at all, 30 Lumen Pulse is 4 hours, 70 Lumen Burst is only an hour.

You are absolutely right, it is "I want to be seen" category light. Nevertheless in this price range this is the best available option. Can serve as a backup light as well, if your main fails, weighting only 55g.

After getting through many many cateye front lights on my bike, I found they were just not light enough and poorly made. I ended up getting a LED Lenser P7, together with a clamp from ebay for about £3 and haven't looked back since.
I now have 2 of them on my bike and they're great. Notice you can get a gift set off amazon at the moment for not much over your budget -
I agree. Cateye lights are shockingly poor quality and rarely last long. I think they road test them by getting an old lady to sedately ride around the company car park for five minutes. They are useless and fragile under normal road use. However, I still have 3 Cateye cycle computers which date from the late 1990s and they have been faultless.
