The Knog Blinders pack into a very small and bright package. Over 7 years of research, design and plain hard work make a deceptively simple light that packs a heavy technical punch.

"I have reviewed this light once already but though I should add a second review in light if this weekends weather.
I left the light on my bike, in the shed, over the weekend during which we have sub zero temperatures overnight (-4 i believe)
On monday morning I took my bike out of the shed and found the light on the floor and the rubber strap had snapped.
I can only assume that the cold temperature caused the rubber to fail and snap, rendering the light completely useless.
If you do buy this light make sure you do not leave it on your bike if it looks like there will be sub zero temperatures."

"This light fits great and is nice and discreet on the bars, the on off button is good as you have to hold it down so no accidental switching on in your bag.
The little red light is a nice feature to tell you when the battery is going - this does however come on only about 5 minutes before the light switches off so a little more notice would be nice.
The light is reasonably bright but you can get brighter for the money. Fine for commuting with a proper light for any stuff away from street lamps.
Battery life is pretty bad - about 5 hours on flash is what I have got so far which will mean charging every 2 days in the winter. If you leave the light charged for more than a few days, when you come to use it it will be totally flat. I have had other rechargeable lights and batteries that hold their charge for weeks on end when not being used and last a lot longer in use too.
Looks good, fits good, bright enough but rubbish battery. Shame considering the price."
Pros: Durable, Attractive, High Quality, Adjustable, Lightweight, Good Fit
Cons: Expensive, poor battery life

ZERO is the new electrolyte drink from High5; it's virtually calorie free (1.4 cal per 100ml) and has a light refreshing taste.

"I used to always use Nuun tablets in my water.
I recently tried these instead and they seem to do the same thing, taste just as good and you get more in a tube for your money.
Will be sticking to these from now on."

Does this front light pack enough punch to light an unlit path in the dark?
No not at all, there is very little throw from the light, it really is just to be seen with.

Will this lamp fix to a saddlebag loop?
Not really no, the integral strap only allows it to fit properly to a seatpost.

There used to be a Zero Salt tab, has it been replaced by the neutral?
Are you sure you mean Zero salt?
By their nature electrolyte tablets are for replacing lost salts and High5 Zero all contain sodium as far as I know.
