Product Information
Full details
The Cateye AMPP 500 and ViZ 150 bike light set is designed for daily commuters and road cyclists who prioritize safety and visibility in all weather conditions. This set offers a powerful 500-lumen front light and a 150-lumen rear light with wide-angle optics to ensure you are seen from all directions; however, users should note that the integrated batteries are non-replaceable, meaning the lights will eventually reach their end-of-life after many charge cycles.

FAQs
Are these lights waterproof?
They are designed for all-weather use and are water-resistant, but they should not be submerged in water.
How long does it take to fully charge the lights?
Charging times vary depending on the power source, but generally take between 3 to 5 hours for a full charge.
Can I replace the batteries?
No, the batteries are integrated into the light units and are not user-replaceable.
Does the set come with charging cables?
Yes, standard USB charging cables are included in the packaging.
Will the mount fit an aero seat post?
The Snap System is designed for round seat posts; you may need an additional adapter for specific aero profiles.
What happens when the battery is low?
The power button will illuminate or flash to indicate the battery level is dropping below 20%.
Troubleshooting
Light fails to turn on after charging
Ensure the USB cable is fully inserted and the charging port is free of debris. Try a different power source.
Mount feels loose or rotates during rides
Tighten the thumb screw on the FlexTight bracket or ensure the rubber spacer is correctly oriented on the seat post.
Battery life is significantly shorter than advertised
Check if you are using the highest lumen setting; switch to a lower power or flash mode to extend runtime.
Pros and Cons

- Wide-angle beams increase safety at intersections

- Weather-resistant construction for all-season use
- Compact and lightweight design

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install the front light, wrap the FlexTight bracket around your handlebar, tighten the adjustment dial until secure, and slide the AMPP 500 into the mount until it clicks. The ViZ 150 rear light attaches to your seat post using the Snap System mount; ensure the rubber spacer is positioned correctly to prevent slippage on thinner posts. For care, avoid submerging the lights in water, though they are designed to handle heavy rain. Use a soft, damp cloth to clean the lens to avoid scratching the optics. When not in use for extended periods, charge the batteries at least every few months to maintain cell health.
