This is the same product as the women's Moxie, just in different colors. I'm impressed with how darn bright this is and how comfortable it is to wear. The adjustable beam works much better than expected. It's also really stable walking around. Haven't tried it on my bike yet. The problem I have with it is the case design. Getting the battery cover off is really hard and I worry I will break it. Getting the cover back on is easier, but it's easy to catch the flexible hinges in the cover when you close it, too. The multi-position switch is a massive pain. On and off is easy. However, getting the switch partway depressed to go into the "special" modes takes a careful touch and quite a bit of getting used to. Screwing with a temperamental device on a trail in the dark is not my idea of fun. They really need to rework the case on this.
