T1 Plus bike light

Ok, with this review I don’t want to take away from the larger, brighter, 2600 lumen version of this light, but WOW! Just WOW! WOW is the smaller 1200 lumen version of this light ever bright! I mean this light is absolutely amazing how bright it is! I’m sure the larger one would be even better by far, but for a bicycle or electric scooter (what we have) it is unnecessary to have the larger one. The 1200 lumen light will be good enough. So for now, this review is just my overall inpression of the light just out of the box. I will add to it after I have had a chance to take my bike on a night time ride. Just out of the box, the light may or may not have a charge. We bought two of them for our bikes. One was about 50% charged already and the other was so discharged that it wouldn’t even turn on. However I was able to test it immediately by plugging it in to charge. It turned on and went through the functions just fine. On the right side there is a power button to turn it on. You press it multiple times to go through the settings, and finally press it again to turn it off. There is also a USB-C charging port on the right side, and 4 small blue LED lights to indicate charging status and percent of charge. About the light and its functions. The light has three separate projectors inside. The low beam uses the two outer lights. The beam pattern is pretty even with no dark spots in it. It is nice and wide. It casts light out ahead quite a ways. I’m unsure of the distance right now but I tested it in the back yard and it lit up the trees 70’ feet away with all ease. About the same as the commonly sold 18w pod lights that are so popular on four wheelers. The low beam seems to be a kind of a flood light. There’s no bright spots in the pattern, just a good evenly dispersed light with a nice sharp and flat edge at the top of the beam. This makes it easy to adjust to not blind oncoming cars. The high beam uses just the center projector and it casts a round beam like what a flash light would throw. It is a spot light. Using the high beam raises the height of the light pattern as well. I observed this by mounting the light on my bike in the garage and testing it against the garage door. Once I had the low beam adjusted to what I felt would be reasonably low enough not to blind oncoming cars, then I turned on the high beam and saw that it raised the beam spot about a foot or so higher than where the low beam was. The third option is to run both low and high beam together. This is so bright that unless you were off road I don’t think you would want to use this setting very often. The fourth option is running low and high together but in a flashing mode. Maybe use this during the daytime to get other people to see you. The mount is just a simple clamp that wraps around the handle bars. The clamp is made to fit three different sizes of handle bars. I mounted it onto a bar that is 7/8” in diameter. This is the smallest bar it will fit. As tight as I was able to make it, it was still easy to turn the clamp up and down on the bar. I was afraid that this would make it easy to knock the light out of adjustment so I trimmed a couple of pieces of electrical tape and applied them on the inside of the clamp as a shim and reinstalled the clamp. This worked well to prevent accidentally changing the adjustment of the light. Also the light can be easily removed from the mount clamp for charging, and then put back on again without needing to readjust the aim. Watch this review for future updates, coming soon!

I purchased this LED light for my 60V 2000W electric scooter to improve on the stock light's strength. Since my scooter travels at speeds over 40 MPH, I needed additional light for Night riding (and in daylight to improve visibility to motorists for safety). This Tomsfun light is very well made, durable and extremely bright! Also, it was Super Easy to mount, and the weight is great - with excellent build quality! It holds a charge for a very respectable time, and charges pretty fast with USB-C. I plan on purchasing the larger one for my e-moto bike, and I highly recommend these lights!

It had been several years since I had bought a bike lamp. And now this one was woah! So so bright! I was so impressed with it! It has several settings and all work great. They will see you at night from a long distance and you will see everything too! Also, it is super simple to install and you can slide it in and out to not leave it on if you go somewhere and are afraid to get it stolen (happened to me before), or to charge it. Which, by the way, I love that you can just charge it with the USB cable instead of using endless batteries. It is bigger and heavier than I thought but it sits perfectly on the bike rails. I am happy with this light, and now I can go out at night again! :)

Was trilled about the luminosity, however came to realize the bike lamp just will not stay secured to the holder in the long run. When riding bumps, and who hasn’t, the lamp falls off because no matter how the holder knob is tightened . The design was probably well intended for manufacture, but the reality it doesn’t hold up in this bikers real world. Found this out a bit longer the return timeline.

PROs: The mounting is secure-doesn’t sag but stays adjustable. Easy to install/remove for charging. Great lighting pattern and brightness - beats the heck out of coin-cell-powered LED lights! CONs: I don’t use very often, and recharge it after each use of about 10 - 15 minutes. Two of the five times I’ve needed it the battery was completely dead, and I had to resort to my crappy coin-cell lamp to get home. Not great due to this, as it self-discharges in a week or two without use, so it isn’t as reliable as I would have expected a Lithium battery powered unit to be. I would have to check the battery every day, but forget … and then it’s dead. Improve the battery self-discharge time and this is a 5-star bike lamp.

Edit 06/27/24 - I am now giving the light 5 stars. I used the light a few times on rides since this review and did not get the dimming effect. the light maintained it's initial brightness. I suspect the dimmer is a protection feature when there's overheating. Secondly, I did hear back from support and they confirmed that it's likely the overheating protection feature kicking in. I have upped my rating to 5 stars since the unit operates as intended, is VERY bright and has a secure installation point and easy to aim. The light spread is wide and illuminates a lot of the path ahead. It is also priced affordably! I do not hesitate to recommend this light! Initial Review: Brightness - The most important factor when choosing a light... initially it is very bright and very impressive, but after riding for 3-4 minutes, it dims to less than half-power. Shutting it off and on again restores the light to full brightness once more, however, the it dims again within 30 seconds. Did this on-off process a few times with the same result. Warranty - I did not use the light until day 31 of ownership so I could not return it : ( However, I did send an email to inquire about a possible claim for replacement under warranty. It's been 5 days and no response yet... I just sent a follow up email. I will update this review if the situation improves.

Great light for all kinds of night riding. One caveat, I used a 2 amp as named on the charger and it charged in 4 hours. I have been using a 1 amp charger for nearly a year and it took 23 hours to charge. On the two amp charger the light got very hot. After only one time charging with the so called 2 amp charger the light will no longer hold a charge. Just one day standby and the light now requires 3.5 hours to charge on the one amp. Before the 2 amp charge and over last winter, after month of non-use it only took 2 hours to recharge on the one amp. So be careful in your charger selection or you may damage a really great bike light. I only wish tomsfun would provide a correct 2 amp charger.... even as a additional option. I had to get a new light on prime day just to have the great light I had before.

this light was great while it worked. Super bright, wide field of view, it was great to use mountain biking on night rides. it worked splendidly on ten or twelve night rides over teh coruse of a year. However, Monday night i took it for a ride, and it didnt seem as bright. when I finished, the light would not turn off. The switch just was not working. I thought I would let it run all the way down and then charge it again and see if that somehow reset it. however, it is now thursday afternoon and the light is still glowing faintly. It has not turned off, the LEDs are just glowing very faintly. It is clear that something has gone wrong with the light. I loved it while it lasted, and a couple of other friends were so impressed with it when it was working that I sent them the link and they bought one as well. I will be interested to see if they have the same experience.

This works well and it's nice and bright. Haven't been on any long rides with it as I just commute so can't vouch for the claimed run times but it's a nice light and seems like a quality item.

Very impressed with this light.. Does light up the dark paths & city streets quite well, making your ride much safer and you more visiable to traffic. Says can be used with various charging methods such as computers, laptops, power banks, but unfortunately the power bank I have wont turn on to charge this unit (Not sure if others would work as well) but as for power bricks pluged into the wall, computer, laptop .. No problem.... works as expected.. Can't say how long the light batery level will actually last till completely dead, but I get 1 hour with all lights on and only drops to 50% batter compacity... Rather impressed with this light...

Ilumina bastante bien con la pila cargada al 100, prendida constantemente dura aproximadamente 40 minutos, si te trasladar tramos largos te recomiendo comprar 2 o usar un dinamo ya que puedes ocupar la mientras carga, es una ventaja.

Se calienta mucho. Tiene muy buena luz.solo me fata checar la Duración de la carga. Buen producto.

Perfect timing for summer rides. Very bright for night time rides. Feels sturdy and holds tight on my handle bars
