Strap fits through the openings of bike helmets - only thing to watch for is if your helmet has mesh. Check the peak for bug guard mesh, though most helmets with mesh only have it at the front.
Three modes - blinking front and rear, constant front and rear, and constant front / blinking rear. Matches the most common headlight and taillight modes.
Reasonably bright - won't outshine a head and tail light and probably shouldn't. Assembly is straightforward, but read the directions. Need to take a strip out to let the batteries contact, like most bike lights.
This is a good light--functionally and design-wise. It attached easily to my Bell helmet, and has been very snug. Good illumination, with helpful features, such as the blinking modes, which aid you in being detected by drivers. Still, I would suggest it as a complement to a bike light, but not a substitute, as it doesn't have the same level of projection.
If you ride a bike at night, a decent helmet light is a smart idea. It aids in identifying you as a cyclist, and could possibly serve as a back-up should your primary light(s) fail as you are riding.

Feeling much more safe and confident on the roads.
Haven't ran out of battery yet (only had a few rides with it), so I can't comment on the batteries much.
Great product!
Only time will tell how this lasts and stands up to the British winter but so far I'm very pleased.
