noxgear Tracer2 Multicolor Light Up and Reflective Running Vest | Rechargeable, Ultra-bright Running Lights for Runners

This light-up running vest is fantastic! It’s incredibly bright and makes me feel so much safer during early morning and evening runs. Cars can see me from a distance, and I’ve already gotten multiple compliments on how visible it is. It’s lightweight, comfortable, and easy to use—exactly what I needed for night running. Highly recommend!

I bought this to replace a competitors harness style light. I had that light for several years and never had any issues, but, even when new, the reflective tape was a thin strip and it didn't seem like vehicles could see me very well, nor could other people see me very well. I walk my dogs in the morning before work so it's dark regardless of the time of year. I finally decided to purchase this after thinking about it for some time. It was immediately clear that I was more visible to vehicle traffic especially when approaching from behind me. For someone who is out in the early morning every day that is worth its weight in gold. The vest itself does feel high quality. I like how the chest lamp holder clips into the harness separately so that the whole thing can be removed versus removing the lamp from the holder. The vest is easy to power on/off and change the color modes. The chest strap is very easy to adjust and the whole thing stays secure, provided you watch the video on how to properly adjust it. It's also just fun. It's bright and colorful and I like that. Although I have only been using this for about a week, I have probably 10+ hours of wear time in so as long as it holds up I am a happy camper. On that note, although this does feel like a high quality product and I hope it lasts a long time, I wouldn't recommend tossing it around. I didn't do that with my other harness either, but with that one I never once worried about the durability of it when taking it on and off, setting it aside, leaving it out in the cold, accidentally dropping it, etc. With this harness, I am gentle when putting it on and when taking it off and I hang it on a hook by the chest strap with the chest lamp removed. I have not tested this but I get the feeling it wouldn't be hard to hook the fiber and rip it out of the control unit if you weren't paying attention. The 20 hour battery life is dependent on mode, so just be aware. Blinking modes will yield closer to the 20 hour mark and solid modes less so. I just got the low battery indicator on mine, so about 10 or so hours I think since I use it on solid. A couple things that I would personally like to see changed are the on/off button for the chest lamp being on the top or bottom of the unit instead of the front. It takes a little bit of force to press, which is fine, but the hand position to be able to press it is kind of awkward. Also, I think I would prefer a harness style more similar to the Tracer Jr. Something with shoulder straps that has guides for the fiber optic cable and would also increase reflectivity. Overall, I am very happy with this unit. I don't tend to leave a lot of reviews, but I am a big proponent of not getting run over, and also of buying quality items, so I will update this review in the future if anything changes.

The Noxgear Tracer2 is fantastic — lightweight, easy to wear, and unbelievably bright. The multicolor lights make you highly visible from every angle, which feels great for safety when running or walking at night. It’s rechargeable, lasts a long time on a single charge, and the lighting modes are fun to customize. The vest fits comfortably over any outfit without feeling bulky. Perfect for early morning jogs, nighttime walks, or cycling. If you want to stay safe and visible, this vest is absolutely worth it!

I love this thing. I go for long early morning walks because I can’t sleep. I’m always concerned about the random 4am driver not seeing me. This thing makes me stand out against the darkness from all angles. I feel much safer now. Super glad I opted for the optional light attachment. Makes me stand out even more and it’s great at increasing my visibility in my neighborhood which doesn’t have many streetlights. Nice materials and build quality. Feels like it will hold up well over time. The adjustments to the fit are well thought out. As an added bonus, all the different settings are fun. I wake up and think, “What color am I feeling today?” and choose accordingly.

I run a lot in the evenings or nights - especially now that it's winter and standard time with sun setting at 5pm. For night running, I wear a waist light from UltrAspire on a Flipbelt to illuminate the path in front of me. I also wear head torches from Fenix and Petzl for the trails but not on the road as they could be blinding to other people on the sidewalks and drivers on the road at crossings, etc. While crossing traffic lights, I noticed bright (white) clothing and the waist light sometimes weren't enough to alert the drivers as they made their right turns as I was crossing. I decided then I really need a reflective vest but something that is comfortable for running and not look like a construction worker. I did a quick search and found this Noxgear Tracer 2 and it seemed ideal, albeit somewhat expensive compared to other similar products. I can say that as a serious runner logging 80~90 miles per week, I'm very happy with the Tracer 2. It is so light and comfortable that I don't even notice I have it on. The lighting is excellent and also looks very cool. The fit is spot on and it was easy to adjust exactly to my size and comfort level without any movement or bouncing while running. The functionality of the lights is very straightforward - no manual needed. Battery time is great and it seems to be very durable under any type of weather conditions and usage. Safety is the most important thing when running at nights. I've heard enough stories of runners getting seriously injured or even killed by getting hit by cars while running at night. Even when wearing something like this, one still needs to be very attentive when crossing streets. This item is highly recommended for all runners who run in the evenings/nights. Actually, I think it should be mandatory now. I have observed a big difference. Drivers notice you right away and it provides a peace of mind while running.

This vest is honestly so much fun to use! Been eyeing it for ages but didn't want to get it because it is pretty expensive, but decided why not?! It's got so many different light settings, you can have all the colours flashing in sequence (red, yellow, green, blue, purple, pink!) Basically, your own mini light show to-go. You can also set it to a single colour if a moving disco party isn't your thing. The lights are also super bright and really increase your visibility to drivers at night. I got the small and it fits perfectly (162cm, 55kg, small frame). The straps don't move around, flap or shift while you run. The light pack on the back is securely attached to the belt and doesn't bounce around at all (one of my concerns at first). The pack also sits low enough on my back that my hair doesn't block it! (I have long hair...it gets in the way of most things...) The vest fits snug and not at all too tight, easily adjustable, doesn't dig in or chafe anywhere (not sure if the tubing will stick a bit to bare skin if you're in a tank top though). It also uses and comes ready with 3 AAA batteries which is awesome because those little disc batteries are just annoying and finicky to switch out. The whole thing is well made, no rough edges, super light yet sturdy feeling, no funky cheap plastic smells. The only downside would be that the on/off switch is on the back on the pack, so if you've already got it on, you need to do a little twisting and searching to get at the button. Not a big problem and not hard to get at, but it would be nice if the controls were on the front so you could switch through light patterns a little more easily while you've got the vest on and while you're moving. Overall, would highly recommend for runners!

È stato un regalo super apprezzato e utilissimo! Lèggerò e utilissimo

Ich möchte diese Leuchtweste allen ans Herz legen, die bei schlechten Lichtverhältnissen draußen unterwegs sind, ohne einen Blechkäfig namens Auto um sich zu haben... Es ist sehr angenehm zu tragen und fällt wirklich unglaublich gut auf! KEINER hat mehr eine Entschuldigung, einen nicht gesehen zu haben. Ich fühle mich viel sicherer und die anderen Verkehrsteilnehmer nehmen einen ernst. Es ist außerdem super verstellbar und passt sogar bequem über einen Rucksack und stört auch nicht beim Laufen. Sollte jeder haben!

très bon produit testé sur des routes de campagne où la visibilité est mauvaise, idéale pour des entrainements nocturnes, utilisé en complément d'une lampe frontale ,très sécuritaire.

Lo recomiendo cuando estas en ciudad por que te ven venir los coches tanto en bici como de runner, eso si.. tienes que estar preparado por que vas a llamar mucho la atención, quiza demasiado caro para lo que es.
