Blackburn Voyager and Mars

Small but perfectly formed, this neat light set from Blackburn would be ideal to stow in your bike jersey in case you get caught out at dusk or dull and foggy days. For such small units, both the front and rear chuck out a decent amount of light.

On flashing mode you can see the rear light from a fair way off and it has good side visibility. On continuous setting, the front emits a surprising amount of light onto the road but not quite enough for unlit roads. Flashing would be guaranteed to get you seen from the front and side, and would be an ideal complement for a high-powered light without side visibility.

The CR2032 cells ensure you get 70hrs burn continuous and 140 flashing; fitting with the rubber hook and band is simple and secure; and with the unit being the switch, using gloves is easy.
