Topeak Taillux 100

The Taillux 100 from Topeak provides a lot of visibility in a small, portable design. It's one of the most effective taillights available. The light is turned on with a single button press, and you may pick from four distinct modes. You can choose from constant light, flickering light, or a combination of the two. Topeak claims that at the steady, 100-lumen level, you can get up to three hours of battery life, which you saw in testing practically to the minute.

Topeak also claims that you have up to 220 degrees of visibility, which means that vehicles behind and to the side of you will be able to see you. The visibility is excellent here, both from the rear and from the sides. Because the Taillux is mounted using a small yet strong silicone band, it can be used with a range of seatpost sizes and shapes. Adapters for the most common seatpost shapes are included with the light and slip into place on the back of the light. The light comes with a clip mount so you can attach it to your pocket or backpack. Only Niterider's Sentry Aero 260, which has more lumens and superior side vision, comes close to beating the Taillux as the best tail light in the test. However, the Taillux is less expensive and lighter.
