AVANTO SOLX1 Pro Chest Light, USB-C Smart Running Lights with Safety Courses, Black

I love this light, mostly because I do not have to carry it. Fits nicely, and you forget it is there once you start you run. Also great for those early/late dog walks when the days are short in the winter! Light has multiple brightness settings too, so you can vary it as the sun comes up or goes down. Would recommend.

This is literally a life savior when we walk our dogs at night. Very visible with the fluorescent glow in the dark straps. The great quality, easy to charge and operate.

I use this in the evenings for dog walking, the front light is very bright and can be pointed up and down, the back red lights are also bright enough to be seen from a distance. It is easy to put on. The charge doesn’t last more then about 2 to 3 hours total, but the fact that it is rechargeable is very convenient.

Every runner running at night needs this. For its value, its worth it, hands free, build quality is good, rechargeability is simple as connecting and to outlet. Not sure about magnet strength but the light is bright when is fully charge. Full charge, it can last about 3-4 runs. Adjusting the light to the ground, ahead of you is a nice touch.

I bought this for a young man who likes to walk or run in the evenings, after work. He really likes it in the winter, when the days are short. He says it’s working very well and he likes that he can adjust the chest light so he can see the path well.

Bought this a few years ago and really enjoyed it. Don’t like running with anything on my head, so having across my chest is much better. Don’t notice it while running. Battery life is about 3-4 hours on high beam. Dropped the last one I had and it hit just right to expose the battery. So that’s why I got a 2nd one

Comfortable and super adjustable band, should fit no matter size. Running on a road where I meet atleast 5 cars no matter the time of day I wanted a little extra visibility. This is perfect. I can’t speak for battery life but I’ve charged it once and used it for atleast 3-30 minute runs. The light in the front is also super bright! I can see it reflect in road signs from atleast 0.1 miles away. I’d recommend to anyone that walks or runs outside near light traffic.

::Edit:: Since writing this review I have been contacted by the company and was offered a full refund. This offer was not contingent upon me changing or deleting my review and I appreciate both of those things. I didn't seek them out for a refund or to return the product, so I also appreciate their quick customer service and their proactive nature when trying to make things right. It is possible that I recieved a defective unit but that doesn't change their IP rating in regards to dust or water exposure so just be aware of that. It looks like a solid product with a good battery life and a strong light, both of which are important since this is all for the runner's safety. Thank you for the great customer service and if your products change down the road I might be interested in giving them a shot.::Original Review:: I've debated since last night writing this because I hate to leave negative reviews. That being said, I was reminded today, this is a potential safety device and others might want to be aware.I bought this late September in preparation for daylight savings time and I have only used it on my runs twice this week. The first run was a quick 3 mile run and I had no issues. Last night I did a longer 8 mile run and that's when I had my issues. When it started getting dark I was at about the 6 mile point and sweating pretty well. The device was fully charged but when I went to turn it on I had to press the button multiple times to get it turn on. When I tried to dim it one setting down it was unresponsive. A few steps later it randomly turned off, a couple more steps and it turned back on. This continued for another 2 miles no matter how many times I tried to use the power button.The only difference between the first night and the second was the amount of sweat from my shirt touching the front and back light part of the harness. I didn't sweat much for the first run but when I looked at the back of the front light it was pretty wet. I also noticed the design and I've shown it in the picture. The housing has wide open slits leading to the inner part of the light. I've never had a headlamp or otherwise with this much access to the inner metal of the device.The IP rating (dust and water rating and was hard to find) on the company website has it listed at IPx4, meaning they didn't test for dust and a 4 rating means it's only protected from splashing water, not necessarily from water that is pressed against it.Had I known this, I would have never bought this. Sweat is a constant when running and I also get caught in the occasional downpour, both of those things warrent a device used outdoors for safety to be sturdy and reliable.If neither apply to you than it's brightness is great and the weight is low so I could see it being a reasonable purchase.
