Question 1

I'd like to order one of these. Have the production problems been sorted? IOW, are these genuinely made here? Thanks

Accepted Answer

I believe you are good to go with Two Fish. Ones I received are working perfectly and seem made of pliable material to use on my several different tube diameters. Cheers!

Question 2

What is the largest diameter of light that will fit securly ?

Accepted Answer

The carded item I received says, "it's designed to fit "AA style flashlights" which evidently means 18mm (3/4") diameter pocket flashlights holding one AA cell (or two AA cells end-to-end) because the rubber cradle diameter is only 18mm.  For example, it perfectly accommodates the width, length and weight of the LED MiniMagliteAA (6.5" length) pocket flashlight.  I tried the much smaller LED MiniMagliteAAA, but it secures too loosely with very much excess Velcro strap overhang.  Do not cut away any Velcro strap as its designed length is valuable as I will explain in a moment.  The rubber cradles are 18mm and 28mm.  The rubber cradles are soft and pliable.  A wider diameter than 18mm flashlight may work as long as it's still a pocket-size (wider but very short in length) compact flashlight (because wider/heavier without length reduction will cause it to wiggle and jostle while riding).  The 28mm cradle fits handle bars very well and even the much wider diameter vertical handle bar receiver/fork column due to its rubber flexibility.  Also, try switching the cradles.  For example, I fastened a light-weight plastic USB LI Ion rechargeable 35mm diameter 7" length flashlight to the handlebar with the 18mm cradle (instead of the intended 28mm cradle) and fastened the flashlight to the 28mm cradle with very good results. Instructions advise keeping the rubber cradles clean (to maximize friction).  If you minimize flashlight wt./length and invert the cradles to accommodate respective cylinder diameters, you'll be very satisfied with the performance and versatility of this product.

Question 3

Has anyone used this for technical/black diamond mountain bike riding at night?

Accepted Answer

Not THAT technical, but I used one through the holes in my helmet for a 6 hour XC night race in February. It worked great.
