About Planet Bike In November of 1996, Planet Bike was founded in Madison, Wisconsin. In many ways, Planet Bike began as a social experiment that dedicated itself to doing business in a different way. Instead of being just another company that develops and sells products with profit as its end goal, Planet Bike wanted to help bring about positive change for people, their communities, and the environment. Despite being a simple machine, the people at Planet Bike have always believed that the bicycle has great potential to help improve the world and the lives of the people in it. From the start, they have embraced an alternative corporate purpose which seeks to help get more people on bicycles by making communities friendlier places for the self-propelled. By donating 25% of company profits to causes that promote and facilitate bicycle usage, Planet Bike hopes to make an impact. Social experiments aside, Planet Bike was born from the heart of a cyclist with a goal of making innovative, high quality, and practical bicycle accessories. Simply put, they strive to design and develop the best bicycle products in the world. In the company's short ten year history, they have made important product innovations within the bicycle industry. Advancements include the 4-line computer which is now a standard in the industry and the world's first self-contained HID light. Not bad for a company that ten years ago started as a one man operation. Today, while still a small company, Planet Bike continues to evolve and improve their product line with the goal of always striving to build accessories that make it easier for people to ride their bikes. Since 1996, Planet Bike's financial support of the grassroots bicycle movement has totaled $500,000. By 2010, they have made a goal to donate $1 million to organizations that are dedicated to making America a friendlier place for cyclists.

SuperFlash vs Cherry Bomb
I am writing this review after purchasing both the NiteRider Cherry Bomb and the Planet Bikes SuperFlash. Both lights work as advertized and are currently brighter than any other lights on the market.At night both lights are bright and will catch any driver’s eye with their flash patterns. The difference between the two lights is the NiteRider Cherry Bomb stands out during the day. I placed both of the lights on my bike and had a friend ride the bike to the end of the city block. About half way to the end you would lose sight of the Planet Bikes SuperFlash. I could see the NiteRider Cherry Bomb all the way to the end of the block. After looking at both lights the SuperFlash loses some of its light before it hits the reflector as the LED is set back from it. The NiteRider Cherry Bomb’s main LED is set with the reflector and the plastic front acts as a light diffuser causing the light to be seen at a greater distance during the daylight hours.There is one drawback to the NiteRider Cherry Bomb, the battery life. The NiteRider Cherry Bomb is only supposed to work for 40 hours before the batteries go dead. The Planet Bikes SuperFlash is slated to run for 100 hours.If you are looking for a light to ride with at night then either light will work for you. If you commute or ride during the daytime on busy city streets and wish to have a light to be seen with, then go with the NiteRider Cherry Bomb.

文句なし！
取付方法、性能、デザイン全て満足です。特に性能、兎に角明るいです。0.5W LED部分は直視出来ないほどの光量ですので、自己アピールには十分です。特にヘッドライトを点けている車には、このくらいの明るさがないと目立たない気もします。バイクからサッと外せてバッグ等にスッとさせる(フックがありますので)のも使いやすいです。値段がやや高いキライもありますが、この性能・デザインなのでこんなものでしょう。

Best Bike Light For The Money – Until I Got The Radbot 1000
Since I wrote the below review of the SuperFlash I bought two Portland Design Works Radbot 1000 lights. While the Planet Bike SuperFlash is still a fantastic light and you can’t go wrong with it, the new Portland Design Works Radbot 1000 exceeds the SuperFlash in brightness. There is a Radbot 500, but it is about the same price as the 1000 so no reason to even consider the 500.One could argue that the flash pattern of the SuperFlash is more attention getting because of the frenetic flashing pattern (much like a led motorcycle cop light), but the Radbot is MUCH brighter. I have two SuperFashes on the front of my bike and two Radbot 1000’s next to the SuperFlashes and the Radbots overpower the SuperFlashes.As far as price, I actually paid less for the Radbots. The SuperFlash is about $25 and I got the Radbots for $23 each. If you do get the Radbots, get the 1000, not the 500. But the SuperFlash is still an incredible light for the money. Maybe Planet Bike will feel the competition and up the game to match or beat the Radbot. But for now, the Radbot 1000 is the King for AAA battery lights at this price point. However, most of what I wrote below about the SuperFlash is still true.Original review of my Planet Bike SuperFlash lights before getting the Portland Design Works Radbot 1000:I have a total of 11 of these SuperFlash lights in the family being used a lot, with 7 of them on my bike alone. I’ve tested or researched almost every light that is out there and there is no comparison. This is the brightest and most visible AA or AAA battery light made and in this price range. Its strobe like pattern can be seen from blocks away. The only other light that is better in my opinion is the incredible Dinotte lights, and I have 5 of those. They cost about 8 times what the SuperFlash costs but they are worth every penny.If you want to be safe and be seen put at least one on the rear and one on the front. Out of the 11 we have, I’ve never had one problem with them. And the battery life is great. You won’t be sorry if you get these lights and they just might save your life. But be prepared to have people stop you and ask where you got your light.

Small and VERY bright
This is my second one of these lights. The first ran for a solid five years and finally slipped into well-deserved rest.The build quality of this one seems identical. It feeds on AAA batteries (two) and battery life is excellent; I’ve accidentally left it on in “steady” mode and discovered it two days later, still burning. In steady mode it’s noticeable without blinding your riding partners if you’re on the road at night. In flash/strobe mode, it is VERY visible, even in daylight (the flash pattern includes the white light).I am a fan of the Planet Bike lights in general but this one is my hands-down favorite. I’ve picked up more expensive rechargeable lights but keep coming back to this one. At the price, you can’t beat it

A very bright bike light for safety!
I was reluctant to buy a rechargeable bike light, however, this light is AMAZING! It is very bright for daytime, riding and nighttime riding. It is very easy to use, it lasts a long time without a recharge. And the product is very durable. The best part is the brightness of the light. I noticed 90% less people getting too close to me while road riding with this light! It could definitely save a life when you’re riding by alerting drivers to your presence. It has several modes, which makes it even better. I hope you enjoy your purchase of this product as I am very happy with my purchase.

Durabilidade
Apesar de ser caro, é um produto de excelente qualidade, boa durabilidade e excelente luminosidade. Não tem carregamento por USB, procuro utilizar pilhas AAA recarregável. Já tive outras lanternas mas nenhuma dura igual a esta. Estou comprando mais uma para colocar em outra bicicleta.

Best taillight I know of. Note the distance the flash works.
I use these on all 7 bikes. The strobe effect will shoot light farther than any other light I know of. Works really well in light foggy conditions. The bayonet style mounting makes it easy to take it off and put onto another bike. There are mounting clips to mount it to the seat tube or the chain stay. There are additional mounts that can be purchased so you could move it from one bike to another.It’s light weight and easy to turn on (2 modes) and the batteries usually last me the season (riding weekly, 40 weeks, 4 hours each).

Visible in daylight, rechargeable friendly, amazing battery life, flexible mounting options!
This one is bright enough to get attention in the daylight – just want I want. But it’s little obnoxious after dark and I usually switch to steady operation then. I love that it runs forever on rechargeable AAAs and even longer on Alkalines (particularly in flash mode). The clip on the light itself lends itself to being held onto a seatpost with a velcro strap instead of the bracket it comes with so no permanent fixtures required. After a few years, I did find that a sharp impact can occasionally separate the halves so I usually put a small piece of tape along either side so they can’t jostle loose. This is less of a hassle than it seems considering how many rides you get between battery swaps. I have one of these that’s over 10 years old and still kicking. Worth the extra money IMO!

Best and brightest tail light for your bike.
I have been using this Planet Bike Super flash tail light for years and got another bike and wanted to have exactly the same light. This light is the brightest light I have found, and the battery lasts for many rides, and it only takes one battery, so I am not messing with the usb model of this light. The original is perfect and works superbly even in bright sunlight. I put mine on my under seat bag, and it stats just fine

Very Bright
This is a great tail light. I have had the same one on my bike for over 10 years now and it still works great. The new one works just as good. I like the hardware for mounting. It does not come with cheap stretch and hook silicone, with options for the seat tube or brake rails. It also came with batteries. It costs more than a lot out there but I do not regret a penny of it. It is bright for evening/early morning and night riding. The lighting pattern is very effective. I prefer to use my own rechargeable batteries which has worked great as my first unit is still going strong for over a decade. internal batteries when used up renders the device useless.The light on the left in the picture is my old one and on the right is the new one.
