Cateye TL-LD600BR 5-Red LED Bike Tail and Safety Light Review       rating
by:       on: 15-Nov 2009

I am an enthusiast of flashlights, headlamps, CCFT lanterns, and coolers. After comparing bike safety lights, I decided to get the Cateye 5-LED Tail Light. This is a review of the Cateye TL-LD600BR 5-Red LED Bike Tail and Safety Light.

Batteries: The only lights considered are those that run on AA or AAA batteries and are efficient. This light uses two AAA batteries.

Efficiency: I am not able to report on exactly how efficient or long lasting the light is. However, the light was left on all night and appears to still be powered adequately.

Output: The best aspect about the light is that it has the five LEDs lined up in a row. All five can flash simultaneously, stay constantly on, flash each single LED in a row (Knight Rider mode), or have a random pattern. The LEDs are bright and the arrangements of the LEDs and multiple settings make it very noticeable, which is important in safety. Plus, the light can be observed from the sides, not just from the direction it is facing. I believe these features gives the light an advantage to other tail lights as far as safety.

Build: This Cateye Tail Light appears to be durable, is very lightweight, and attaches securely to the bars on a bicycle. It has been through some bumps and does not rattle or move from its secured position. It does not appear to be set up to be able to be screwed in place of a reflector. The light can be adjusted to be set vertically or horizontally. The light does appear water resistant, though it does not appear to be submergible.

Overall, the Cateye TL-LD600BR 5-Red LED Bike Tail and Safety Light appears to be nicely built, efficient, and extremely effective safety light with a simple design. I would rate it a 4.5 out of 5.0. This rating would be higher if the Cateye light had casing that was sealed a little more confidently from the elements.

I have used this light for some years. The only trouble I have seen with it bouncing out was operator error. I very much like the option for a vertical mount. I would hit it with my leg otherwise.
Works well until it doesn't       rating

I have used this light for over a year. It has worked very well for me for about eight months or so, but in the last four I have noticed a problem. When I get home and take the light off, sometimes I see that it is not shining anymore. If I tap or jiggle the light, then it comes back on again. I have tried taking the batteries out and putting them back in again, but the problem persists.

Anyway, when it works it is sufficiently wide and bright to serve its function well.
