It's amazing for us to test all kind of things related with our little world, we enjoy doing it, as all the brands and companies know, we make it for free (for the moment), it's a free cost option for a lot of companies to show us their products, and the most important: to test it before you buy, giving our point of view of the products by us, an specialized site for this fixed gear world.

As we said, we make it for free cost for you, you only send us for free a sample of your products: bike components, apparel, bicycle, wheels... and we make one or more posts with our review. The cost for you is only the sample and the shipping.

New BOOKMAN Lights USB rechargeable - the eco friendly lights for your fixed gear bike

Our friends of BOOKMAN has sent us their last product...do you remember our last BOOKMAN Lights review? Now, they have created these lights with an USB connector to recharge the batteries, you will not need batteries anymore!

About the BOOKMAN USB Lights

We have reviewed the pitch black model, the package contains a front light with white led, rear light with red led and USB/micro USB cable. In this model is really easy to see the words: FRONT and REAR in the lights, it could help you when you want to attach the lights to your bike (you don't need to switch on the lights to see the color...:-P...)

USB Light is compact, lightweight and surprisingly bright...it fits all bicycles we test, and is quick and easy to attach to the handlebar, fork or saddle post with and elastic rubber band. Its large button on the upper side makes the light easy to turn on and off, even with gloves (perfect for cold days...)

This new light is even brighter than the previous model and fitted with a micro USB port for rechargint the battery. All mobile phone chargers with micro USB connection can be used as potential chargers for the USB Light.

BOOKMAN USB Lights Technical characteristics

Available in four color: Pich Black (this is the model we have tested), Midnight Blue, Raging Red and Shamrock Green.

Weather resistant, it can be used all year round.

Run time: 5 hours (Steady) and 25 hours (Flashing)

Visibility: over 500 meters

Modes: steady, flashing, off

Battery: Lithium-ion

Charging time: 2 hours from flat

Conclusion

This product is environmental friendly, you will never need to buy new batteries, you only need electricity...it's great!
Design really simple and easy to use
Easy to transport in your pocket after park your bike in the city
Provides a very good lighting, perfect to increase your safety when riding through the city
As in the previous model, we recommend this lights!
