Review: NiteRider Stinger USB
This is just a tiny little tail light with some good animation and side visibility. Its claim to fame is it is rechargeable. At $35, that’s quite an achievement.
Those CR2032 watch batteries are such a pain and so expensive. These lithiums last a long time in the bright flash mode and it will last 10 hours.
