noxgear Tracer2 - Multicolor Illuminated, Reflective Vest for Running or Cycling (Rechargeable, Waterproof)

It feels very lightweight and comfortable to wear. I had it on for long runs and I didn’t feel hindered at all by it. Different light settings are very useful for poorly lit roads and busier traffic areas.

Ive been riding long night rides for more than 20 years now and Ive lost too many friends to drunk , distracted, and simply careless drivers. High night visibility is very important to me. I have two very bright rear lights and very bright front lights too. But Im not highly visible from the side and even the reflective Sam Brown belt I wear is not great from the side. Thats where this vest is almost unique. I first wore this on a 600k brevet that starts in the dark and finishes in the dark 40 hours later. Theres a lot of night riding on a ride like that. My first impression is that this vest very light. You really dont know its there except that you can see the flashing reflected off your handlebars (not in an annoying way). You are highly visible from 360 degrees and especially from behind because the entire battery pack lights up too. In fact, youre so bright that no one will want to draft off of you. Fortunately its easy to turn on and off while youre riding. As I recall there are 6 different colors and several flash patterns - some of which are very eye-grabbing. One very nice feature is that when you turn it on and off it flashes three times in one of three different colors depending on your battery strength. It takes three AAA batteries that are easy to replace in the dark. One reviewer suggested a rechargeable Li-Ion battery would be a good idea and I agree, but only if the battery lasted at least 24 hours. I dont know what the battery life of the AAA batteries are but theyve lasted over 20 hours so far. If the batteries do die on you, you still have the reflective belt. If you look carefully at the product image you can see two small black dots under the front of the belt. These are adjustable stops that slide along the illuminated plastic tubes and effectively allow you to size the vest to your torso. Its a good idea but I notice that they leave little indents in the tubes. This, and the fact that the tubes are very narrow, makes me think they are fragile and I think it would be very easy to break the vest if they catch on something as you pick it up, put it on, or take it off. Thats why I took a star off. Some people think that $60 is too much. Take a look at a Pearl Izumi reflective cycling vest. They start at ~$50. Its true the vest will keep you warmer too, but that might not be a good thing on a warm night. Would I recommend this to a friend? Absolutely. I have some dead friends who might still be alive if theyd been wearing this vest. But with drunk drivers its hard to know. RIP Jim and Rod.

Well made, bright, flashing and colors make you easy to see. I’ve used one for years and got this for my daughter

My husband and I ordered these after seeing a neighbor walking in it. We have two large dark dogs, and taking them for walks at night was an iffy prospect, even in our well-lit neighborhood. But we are both clearly seen while wearing these, based on the comments we get from people calling out to us that they like the vests. We also wore them during a night-time 5K, and saw several others wearing them as well. I like the ability to change the colors or patterns of the lights, I feel like the flashing ones make people take more notice. Well worth the cost!

I am gushing about, and showing off, the Tracer360 to my riding buddies, friends and co-workers. This product is absolutely amazing. Their customer service is equally amazing. Cycling is my passion and something I greatly enjoy doing. Days are getting shorter and I dont get out of work early enough to finish my rides before nightfall. This product is the final piece to my night safety gear. I went on a group ride with it recently and one of the guys I ride with has already said that he is getting one. Everyone else who has seen it thinks that it is fantastic. Ive had cars slow down as they pass me while Im out riding to get a better look and one car passenger yelled out her window, I LOVE your lights! I am recommending it to every person I know who either cycles or jogs past sundown. This is the best product Ive ever purchased for my cycling safety (and Ive purchased a lot). I have absolutely NO regrets about my purchase (sometimes eyebrows go up when I mention the price, but it is definitely worth every penny). It is exactly what Ive been looking for to enhance my visibility when I ride after sundown. I hope Noxgear is in business a good long time because when this one breaks, if the warranty has expired, Im going to need to purchase another. I would make one suggestion (and I did when I contacted them). I require their product so that I can stay active as the days get shorter, so I dont mind having to buy batteries when it requires, but some people have mentioned that they dont like the idea of the added cost. I recommend that they consider making it rechargeable either via USB or provide an AC charger. (And that was my two cents.) On top of the incredible piece of safety equipment theyve manufactured and the fact that theyve made safety cool, their customer service is truly customer-centric. I originally ordered a Large/Medium, but it turned out to be too large and the light tubes hung too low and too loose. I contacted Noxgear from the Contact the seller button, explained my predicament and requested to exchange my Large/Medium for a Small. The answer was yes, no questions asked. Now THAT is Customer Service. All the best to Noxgear.

Love the visibility it gives me on my walks or run. I bought 2 one for my wife and myself. We get tons of compliments on them!

This light is easy to wear (and fun to use because you can select the color scheme by simply pressing the button). It is used so other people/vehicles can see you. It doesnt provide much light to see by. There is a light attachment you can purchase separately. I have not tried that one since my current light works well.

This is a great product that works very well for a avid runner like me. i use it every day during the winter and it takes a long time to break. My only complaint is with AMAZON I ordered an XL and they sent a m/l and you cant get ahold of anyone to help you Now i have to order another and return their mistake SO UNFAIR

This is a must have if walking or running in the dark.

As an urban runner in Los Angeles, this vest provides excellent visibility for night time running. The lights are quite bright and are complemented by the retroreflective strap. The unit is easy to adjust for fit and is comfortable for long runs. The battery life is excellent and I appreciate that it is rechargeable with USB-C. I am surprised I dont see more folks with these considering how poor street lighting is here. Highly recommended for areas where you are running around cars that are not paying attention for pedestrians.
