FAQs
FAQs
How are they anti-theft lights?
The Droid is bolted to your bike using anti-theft bolts, and because we provide the necessary bolts to secure other components, you can also protect your handlebars and shifters, and saddle.
Is the Droid waterproof?
Yes, the Droid is waterproof, and designed to remain on your bike in all conditions.
What battery life does the Droid have?
On standard flash mode, the Droid lasts for 36 hours
Can I use my standard allen key bolts?
Yes you can!
How many Lumens?
A 120 at full power, but it’s the spread of these that make the Droid so visible without being blinding.
Can I see the road with it?
No, the Droid is designed as a ‘Be Seen’ light for Urban settings. It will get you home rolling slowly in a pinch, but this is not what we designed it for!
What settings does The Droid have?
The Droid has 8 settings, High, medium, low in both constant and flash. Two further daylight settings are snake mode and random flash (one LED at a time on full power).
Is it possible to adjust the angle of the light?
Yes! The Droid has a 30-degree angle of adjustment.
How does it charge?
We provide a 3m long USB-C charging cable. Store your bike somewhere without power? A USB power bank will keep you topped up, or undo just one anti-tamper bolt to take your light inside!
What if I lose the specialised tool for removing the anti-theft bolts?
Not to worry, you’ll be able to order replacements both from us, and other online shops.
Can I use this on any bike?
Yes, but we do not recommend for use off-road, as MTB parts are subject to much higher forces than other parts.
I want to buy a front light, but don’t want to fit it on the faceplate – is this possible?
Yes, when you order, please leave a note confirming, and we will provide with a locking collar instead of the faceplate mount.
Fitting Instructions
Fitting Instructions
Check out our 90 second how to fit video here.
Front light fitting
- Remove your current faceplate with a standard Allen key
- Hold your Droid light in place and gently thread all 4 bolts into place
- Carefully tighten the 4 bolts, evenly across all of them
- Tighten just enough to stop your handlebars rotating and no further – overtightening could cause fatigue followed by failure
- Do not overtighten, and if damaged do not use and contact us for replacement parts.
Rear Light fitting
- Choose the appropriate size hinged collar
- If necessary, make a shim out of old inner tube for the correct size and fit
- Tighten the bolt until light will not rotate on seatpost
- Do not overtighten, this could strip the aluminium thread.

excellent best light ever
Really pleased with the very speedy delivery and good service when ordering this product online.
Bought as a gift and recipient very happy with the product for their bike.
Very tidy , easy to fit . Looks great on my mountain bike
Great in theory light strength ok for lit roads but that’s it and adjustment isn’t that great I had to flip my stem as the light would not dip
Fantastic lights, exactly what I needed. I wanted lights that couldn’t be stolen to avoid constant removal when my bike is locked in public spaces. These are really secure, solid (metal casing), bright & everything I wanted from a set of lights. Wish I had found them sooner. Excellent really long charging cable too.
