The helmet mount is a standard Velcro strap with padding to protect your helmet. The addition of a hand tightening angle adjuster allows you to set the light how you like. Included is a 'remote' which plugs into the charging port. It attaches to the side of the helmet with Velcro, allowing you to change modes without having to reach to the very top of the light.
The Matrix LED display makes it easy to see your battery life at a glance and lets you see what light mode you are in – helping you to control the light with greater accuracy. Light Modes Overall, the Meteor Storm Dual is a very well thought out light, and the customisation of the outputs is a massive plus. For the money it is very easy to recommend. Verdict The Meteor Storm Dual recharges in just 2.5 hours thanks to the fast-charging USB-C cable. It shows the charge level on the top of the light and the unit will disconnect from the charging current when fully charged—to avoid battery damage. The included helmet mount is a simple plate with the same mount as the handlebar version, which can be angled up or down, and secured with a Velcro strap. With five constant modes, five flashing and a boost, the Meteor Storm Pro can be set to provide the ideal output for just about any riding environment. Naturally, the 1700-lumen full beam is best for particularly dark conditions whether on a bike path, trail or country lane, while dimmed settings (850 and 450 lumens, for example) are good for better lit and traffic-heavy areas such as town riding. The 2-hour run-time at 1700 lumens is more than enough for an evening ride and you can get up to 25 hours (claimed) on the lowest 150-lumen setting.

The Meteor Storm Pro is designed for durability and style. The chassis contains 2 Cree LEDs for superior output. For maximum output on dry roads I did find using both LEDs wasn't quite as good as using a powerful light with just white LEDs, as the mix of the white and yellow just takes the edge off the sharpness of the beam, but it's a small price to pay for use in rubbish weather. A better cooling system can increase both the run time and brightness of an LED; the lights performance can be improve 15%-30% by managing the heat. In Moon's large range of bike lights, the Storm Lite slots in at the bottom of the Storm range, offering only slightly lower outputs than the top two but no fewer features.
Battery life is good, and I often achieved in excess of all of the claimed burn times I tested by around 10%. You can follow progress of how much juice you have left by way of the matrix display, which also tells you what mode you are in. With either of the two LEDs on separately this changes to 800 lumens–Boost (2.5 hours), 600 lumens–Mode 1 (3.5 hours), and 80 lumens–Mode 2 (27.5 hours).I realise a two-part light and battery unit are more of a pain to set up, and a smaller battery would reduce power and run-time, but it's a point to note if you're after a sleek look or light weight. Conclusion The modes themselves have something for just about all situations, with the maximum 800-lumen setting enough for dark roads and lanes, and the varying flashing modes ideal for low light or day use. One of the five flashing modes is an emergency pattern, signalling SOS in morse code.
On paper the Oxford Ultratorch 2K looks like a very good proposition – I mean, 2000 lumen for an extra tenner! In reality, though, the Oxford puts out nothing like that power, and the beam pattern, build quality and pretty much everything about the Moon surpasses that of the Oxford, which highlights what really good value the Meteor is.The Meteor Storm Pro has a remote, bar mount and helmet mount in the box. Alex Evans Moon Meteor Storm Pro bottom line The light comes with multiple different light modes which can easily be switched between to find the best lighting for your current environment’s lighting and depleting battery life. The light modes include a Boost mode, flashing and constant modes as well as an SOS mode. Additionally, the Day Flash mode keeps you visible during daylight rides. After waiting a few weeks of the test period, I finally woke up to a foggy dark morning with very poor visibility... Performance To aid in reducing the temperature in the system, the Meteor light is designed with an aluminium body and comes equipped with and integrated air vent cooling system. The rear of the light acts as a heat sink to help disperse heat away from the light.
