Really? I've had a few of their Moon rear copies in the past, and they were all faulty out of the box, or failed well within the lifespan of branded ones. That's generally a pretty uninspiring range of offers this round.

I only have the front one left of their moon copies, but bought 2 years ago, rear died last winter, these ones feel more solid

They’re not advertised as ‘commuter’ (road) lights, and look more like MTB lights?

All the ad says really is:

Lights to be used in line with road vehicle lighting regulations

Anyone know if they have a cutoff beam/square pattern/StVZO rating? Or just another dazzling floodlight?

I'm struggling to find enthusiasm to pop down for what looks like just some Muc Off dry lube peeking my intrest.

https://www.aldi.co.uk/bikemate-grey-2-in-1-bike-bag/p/801484422704101 sounds curious if you have panniers, switch to a rucksack option.

Got the Cree lights,vwas also daft enough to buy some of the neoprene gloves. I genuinely can't think of an application where they would be anything other than shit
