Vetta Triangular Lux and TTL-1 Bicycle Headlight and Tail Light Combo Review

Vetta Triangular Lux and TTL-1 Bicycle Headlight and Tail Light Combo
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
For the money, it's not too bad. It would be better if the headlight had a flashing setting. As a commuter light set, the headlight and taillight will let others see you, but you won't be able to see much of the road in front of you. But in its category, it seems to be a bit brighter than its competition. It's as good or better than anything under $40 here. I'd put it on par with other 1-watt LED lights (Nite Rider Ultrafazer Max, Planet Bike 1 watt Blaze, Cateye EL 530, etc) and it looks to be a bit cheaper. Again, this is NOT going to be comparable to a $100+ LED headlight. Don't fool yourself into thinking this will be all you need to start commuting at night. It will not get you home safely on a dark night on a busy road. But who says you only need one light? I'm thinking of strapping it on my helmet and using it with one or two other more powerful headlights. Or have a whole handlebar full of light.
Last, the taillight is frickin' huge. I haven't compared how bright it is to some others, but it's a big light.

Vetta RT277 Heavy Duty Cycling Computer Review

I have had this for several months and still can not get the cadence to work. Don't waste your money on this POS.
Update - After numerous emails with the mfg'r and the total lack of function of the unit, they finally agreed to replace the unit. Waiting for their response with a non functional unit and about to go on a trip, I bought a Cateye with cadence and it works fine. So much for Vetta. Now let's see if I can get my money back.

Vetta Sky Rider Bicycle Headlights Review

Average Reviews:

First of all this is not meant to light your way through the forest, but it has plenty of brightness for others to see you. They are cosmetically nice looking, the mounting hardware is exellent for almost any situation, but you may want to change the ties they come with which is no big deal. You can pick up the ties anywhere. For the Price you can't beat these lights they were everything I expected.

Vetta RT255-L Heavy Duty SmartLite Cycling Computer Review

This is the second Vetta bicycle computer I bought through Amazon. I saved a few dollars (even with the shipping charges) compared to buying at the local bicycle shops and delivery was pretty quick. This computer does more than I need but since I have a 18 year old Vetta computer on my oldest road bicycle that still works I stuck with the manufacturer and am not disappointed. Even though I am an old school guy this new computer is great and easy to use.
