  1. Feel much safer on bike

    Neil Witmer (verified owner)

    Visibility on a recumbent trike is not easy to achieve, especially when riding on roads rather than trails. This is the brightest and most versatile light I've owned. My neighbors tell me visibility is excellent, without being too bright. I would hope future technology would allow more battery life. Also, instructions could be a little clearer for helmet mounts, written for cyclists as well as firemen.

  2. Great value, Visible, Easy to Use

    Bob Egan (verified owner)

    I love my Guardian Angel and it rides on my shoulder every day. The warning lights keep me visible on the road. The work light is bright and keeps my hands free as I work on my patients and highly recommend it. The functions are easy to use and can be activated without looking. Great device

  3. Life Saver

    Austin Sonnier (verified owner)

    I work patrol on the night shift. During traffic stops, I activate my guardian angel red and blues and even in the dense fog that we have been having, vehicles see me and move completely out of the way. The front white light helps with being completely hands free during a traffic stop as well vehicle searches. All the lights are high powered LED and visible from extremely long distances even in thick fog. Me and partner put them on the roof of our units and played around with the red and blues, which, goes to speak on the strength of the magnet itself. $100+ seems like a decent chunk of change for a light, but, you cant put a price on your life. Spend the money and be safer out on the road in whatever career field youre in, you wont regret it.

  4. This is the best safety device to be see

    Matthew Reemelin (verified owner)

    I love my micro! I use it when I need to be see especially on the side of the road with my motorcycle. I am very involved in the Christian Motorcyclist Association and we do a lot of community help for motorcycle functions I use when I need to stand out and be seen. I liked it so much that I have given them to my wife, daughter, and son to have with them on their motorcycles. The magnet is very strong and attaches perfect to our motorcycles and with one button to press you will be seen.

  5. Useful

    Tony Soriano (verified owner)

    The Guardian Angel Micro Light is a game-changer when it comes to increasing visibility in critical situations. As a firefighter, I often respond to car accidents at night, and having this light flashing on me gives me a strong sense of safety while working in the middle of the road. It’s not just for outdoor emergencies either—I’ve found it incredibly useful in low-light situations when I’m assessing patients. Pros: The magnetic mount is one of my favorite features. I have the light attached to my radio strap, making it super easy to access and use on the go. It snaps on and off effortlessly, which saves me time when I need it most. Cons: The one downside I’ve noticed is that the light isn’t as strong as I’d like at times. However, this could be due to the fact that I went with the Micro version instead of the Elite, which may offer more brightness. Value for Money: For the price, I believe the Micro is a solid purchase. It offers peace of mind, knowing I have a bright, flashing light on me, making me more visible in dangerous situations. Overall Impression: Overall, I’ve had a great experience with the Guardian Angel Micro Light. It’s useful, reliable, and I’m actually planning on getting another one to mount on my helmet for even more visibility. Definitely a product I’d recommend to anyone needing enhanced safety and quick access to light.

  6. Perfect for running

    juliusrice (verified owner)

    I use this mini for a running light on my early morning runs. I use the magnetic puck that comes with the light to attached it to whichever pocket of my shorts is closest to the road and that is strong enough to have never had an issue during normal running. I did lose a light a year ago when I took a bit of a spill through a rough spot on the side of a road, so I added a tether and just clip that on my shorts as well. I can tell when cars see me from way off as they start to move over further away then they do when I don't have the light turned on. Highly recommend!

  10. Nothing short of awesome!

    Michael Greer (verified owner)

    When I opened the package (the shipping was really fast!) I was immediately skeptical as to how such a tiny bugger could help me be seen. A minute after fully charging both Micro Series units, I was illuminating my front yard with pulsating orange LED’s from two safety lights that - together - are smaller than a pack of smokes! I intend to put them to the test out on the road as I will be commuting after dark on my motorcycle, and have my wife video the lights on my shoulders from a good distance, starting at 200 yards and moving out from there. I have no doubt that these Micro Series lights will do the job, and do it very well! Thanks for a great product.

    What an exceptional piece of equipment! You can feel and see the quality of the GA elite series. Super bright LEDs. Fits perfectly onto lapel of Ballistic vest, it’s out the way when you need it to be however right there when you need it. I would definitely recommend getting the tether , the exceptionally strong magnet is great the tether gives you that extra sense that you not going to loose your equipment in a scuffle. Uses from clearing a house to exceptional visibility when at the side of the road at a traffic stop or collision! colleagues always ask what it is and very impressed with the demo!

  21. Compact and efficient

    Rowdy Milligan (verified owner)

    I just recently started my job with the NCDOT and this unit was right in my price range for first starting out. The brightest setting is super bright and I love the ease of attaching it to my vest when I'm out in the roadway. I plan to purchase a larger unit in the future to use when I'm on an emergency scene as I'm also a first responder.
