4.0 out of 5 stars Generator Light Set, December 9, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: X Factor 3-Inch Bicycle Generator Light Set (Sports)
The generator was much better than expected. I had a more powerful unit that could not withstand the elements (rain, mud, etc.) but this unit, although less powerful, is rugged.

5.0 out of 5 stars Works great! Easy to install!, February 21, 2012
This review is from: X Factor 3-Inch Bicycle Generator Light Set (Sports)
I bought one of these and set it up on my bicycle back when they carried the BELL brand name, but it's the same unit now that it's sold under the X Factor brand name.

This light is easy to install and set up. Clamp the front bracket to your front forks and adjust so that the bottle dynamo driveshaft is in line with a radius line drawn from the axle. Attach the rear light similarly. Be sure that the ground screw goes into the frame enough that you have a nice circuit or else it won't work. I think a lot of people don't know what the ground screw is for.

String the wire between the generator and the headlamp and the generator and the rear lamp and off you go.

I ride my bicycle for exercise very early in the morning and this system throws plenty of bright white light with the halogen bulb. People can see you better than with reflectors and you can see them. You can also see objects in the road, potholes, cracks, puddles, etc. I really do think it's... Read more

4.0 out of 5 stars Just OK but there is No Instruction At All !!!, September 22, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: X Factor 3-Inch Bicycle Generator Light Set (Sports)
One issue I had is No Instruction!!! it is very difficult to install this thing.

-- This generator is designed to be mounted at the front so the headlight has a shorter wire than the taillight.
In my case, my front fork is too fat so I had to mount it at the back. Then I found out the only way I could
do that is to mount it on the left side (the side without the chain ). It is the only place that you can mount
the dynamo so that when you press the lever it should swing toward the tire to engage the dynamo.

-- I also realize that by mounting it at the back, my headlight wire will not reach the dynamo bottle. Also
I would have extra wire length for the tail light; so I had to improvise. Note that each light and the dynamo
has only one positive terminal. The negative terminal is the bike frame so make sure you have good electrical
contact with the bike.

--I figured out how to mount the dynamo but the lights,... Read more
