PSA- Lidl bike stuff, USB rechargable lights

Lidl have go some bike stuff in again including some rechargable (from USB) lights that will come in jolly handy for my dark rides to and from work.

Type C charging too, which is bonus. Probably not the brightest, but for £13 you can’t go far wrong

Speaking of cheap USB charging lights, I bought the Rolson £14 ones from Tesco and they’re actually pretty good.

(Ignore the stupid 1* review there, you need to press and hold the button to turn off the rear light. Yes it’s different to the front light but it’s not THAT hard to figure out)

Exactly what I thought! They’ll be good enough for my ~2 mile cycle path trundle down to work and back early/late doors.

They’re also STVZO complaint, so they’re putting their putting their lumens on the ground, not into everyone elses eyes.

Looks like the charging port has changed to USB C from mini USB, but the front light has been great over the past two winters, the old shield shape rear often sits on my road bike if expecting to be be out near sunset.
