Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I really like this set-up.I am giving it 5-stars based on price, performance & durablity.I ride to work everyday.It's about 8 miles each way plus a 10 minute ride on the light rail.Much of my commute is on a busy trail.During daylight I use the flashing mode and more than one person has told me it's just too bright. People really see the flashing lights during the day. They didn't always see me before.At night I have plenty of light to see by. One of the lamps is a spot and it lights the road/trail in front of me while the wide angle lamp lets me things off to the side.This system is much brighter than my 15 hallogen system, last longer (I have never run out of juice) and is lighter.Also being LED it is less likely to burn out a bulb and if I did burn out one, well I have a second one.
I am writting this review after owning the product for over 6-months.It was money well spent.I feel much safer these days. This product is also very well built. Mine has survived on BAD crash with just a few nicks and scratches. (That's better than the bike or I did.)
As for future improvments.Use 5 watt LEDs instead of 3 watt.Go to Li-ion battery that is smaller and lighter but gives the same burn time.Both of these would raise the cost but I would pay the extra to get it.

Product Description:
The Blackburn System X6 Bicycle Lights includes two heads with Luxeon III emitters, one wide-beam and one spot-beam. Both heads provide 85 lumens of pure white light each, equivalent to a 12-15W halogen bulb. Each head has a dimmer switch that can be set at 30, 70 or 100-percent allowing the lights to operate from 3.5 to 14 hours on a single charge in either steady or flash modes. The System X6 lights feature Constant Current technology that maintains near-full brightness throughout their runtime without overheating, as well as a patented flashing rate that has been scientifically proven to be more visible to the human eye at a distance.
The Blackburn X6 includes a helmet mount and standard/oversized universal bar clamp, and a lightweight five-cell NiMH battery that fits on the frame, in bottle cages, or in your jersey pocket. The Blackburn System X6 also includes a supercharger that can achieve a full charge in 4.5 hours, and comes with a limited lifetime warranty.
About Blackburn
