noxgear Tracer2 - Multicolor Illuminated, Reflective Vest for Running or Cycling (Rechargeable, Waterproof)

Product: Tracer360° Illuminated Vest Price: $49.97 Cheapest Place to Buy: Amazon Product Dimensions: 3.6 x 2.5 x 8 inches; 5.6 ounces Guarantee: 1 year Manufacturer Warranty My Rating: 5 out of 5 stars ____________________________________________________________________________________________ I bought this vest to go with the LightHound dog harness I bought for my dog. Again I am not disappointed! It made me really visible so it does take a little while to get used to, but it felt really safe! The eye-catching, 360° illumination caused people driving by me in their cars to stop and ask where I got the cool-looking illuminated vest. They told me everyone should have them. Perfect for evening joggers, cyclists and dog walkers. There are 6 super bright solid colors - Red, Blue, Purple, Pink, Green, and Orange AND 5 multicolor flashing modes easily selectable at the press of a button right on the vest, easy to access while youre walking, running, etc. Unlike reflective running vests these flexible fiber optic cables, and 3M reflector chest belts alert traffic before their headlights are on you. The X shape of the light cables creates a larger visibility area, illuminating both sides of the body and making you visible from over a quarter mile in any direction. The vest is very lightweight (6.5 ounces), sweat-resistant and comfortable since its made with high quality sports mesh and elastic. With the slim, minimalistic design it wont trap sweat and you’ll forget you’re wearing it. Since this vest is highly adjustable it can be worn throughout the year. It expands easily to fit over a winter coat or adjusts down to fit over a tank top in summer. Zero bounce and rain-resistant. The vest takes 3 AAA batteries which should last about six months with daily use. Noxgear was founded by engineer athletes with great customer service too. This vest is truly a revolutionary design and far surpasses the old fashioned head lamps and reflective clothing. I am extremely pleased with the vest and could not even find one thing I did not like about it. I hope you enjoyed this review and if you have any questions about the Tracer 360° or want to leave your own personal review, leave a comment below.

This is well designed and I would buy it again. It is pretty adjustable and lighter-weight than it appears. With a few different adjustment options (on the yellow elastic as well as adjustments on the plastic light tubes, its pretty easy to dial in a fit that doesnt bounce. I found it surprisingly unobtrusive. I was pleasantly surprised that it uses the modern USB-C plug type for recharge. Battery life seems solid.

Love it. Love the colors and brightness of it. Many people complement my light. I feel safe because I’m visible. I still need a small clip on light to show me the ground. Overall I like it a lot!

We got three of these (S/M/XL) for use on our regular bike rides, and they are incredible. First of all, they are super lightweight and we dont even notice were wearing them (from a comfort perspective, you can obviously see them glowing/blinking/flashing). The sizes work great, our ten year old wears the small, my wife wears the M/L, and I wear the XL. Note that Im not small (64 and 300+ lbs) so the XL really can fit an XL person. The lighted loops are very long and go over the shoulders, and the belt is stretchy allowing it to fit a lot of different shapes and sizes. The only slight negative is that by design the main control unit is mounted on ones back, making it a bit of a chore to turn on/off or change the color/pattern by pressing the button, however this can be worked around by either a) getting it set correctly before turning it on, b) having someone else do the pressing for your, or c) reeeaaaacchhing way around and pressing it yourself. Were all flexible enough to reach it ourselves, but its a bit of a contortion and hard to precisely hit the small button. We would appreciate having the controls in the front, but its not enough of an issue to take away any stars given this products otherwise stellar performance. Highly recommended.

I love this vest! Its so lightweight and easy to see. A real potential lifesaver! Unfortunately, Ive learned that the led lights can interfere with my pacemaker, so (although I wore it twice with no problems before I learned this), I wont be wearing it. But my husband will. Highly recommend, just not for me.

I am gushing about, and showing off, the Tracer360 to my riding buddies, friends and co-workers. This product is absolutely amazing. Their customer service is equally amazing. Cycling is my passion and something I greatly enjoy doing. Days are getting shorter and I dont get out of work early enough to finish my rides before nightfall. This product is the final piece to my night safety gear. I went on a group ride with it recently and one of the guys I ride with has already said that he is getting one. Everyone else who has seen it thinks that it is fantastic. Ive had cars slow down as they pass me while Im out riding to get a better look and one car passenger yelled out her window, I LOVE your lights! I am recommending it to every person I know who either cycles or jogs past sundown. This is the best product Ive ever purchased for my cycling safety (and Ive purchased a lot). I have absolutely NO regrets about my purchase (sometimes eyebrows go up when I mention the price, but it is definitely worth every penny). It is exactly what Ive been looking for to enhance my visibility when I ride after sundown. I hope Noxgear is in business a good long time because when this one breaks, if the warranty has expired, Im going to need to purchase another. I would make one suggestion (and I did when I contacted them). I require their product so that I can stay active as the days get shorter, so I dont mind having to buy batteries when it requires, but some people have mentioned that they dont like the idea of the added cost. I recommend that they consider making it rechargeable either via USB or provide an AC charger. (And that was my two cents.) On top of the incredible piece of safety equipment theyve manufactured and the fact that theyve made safety cool, their customer service is truly customer-centric. I originally ordered a Large/Medium, but it turned out to be too large and the light tubes hung too low and too loose. I contacted Noxgear from the Contact the seller button, explained my predicament and requested to exchange my Large/Medium for a Small. The answer was yes, no questions asked. Now THAT is Customer Service. All the best to Noxgear.

The only thing I wish I could change is that I ordered a small rather than a medium. The other downside is I have to charge it after 3-4 uses (approximately 6-7 hours of use total). Other than that, this thing is great. I run before work in the early morning hours, and it is pitch black in some places. The light in this are nice and bright….easy for cars to spot me from much further away. I like the ease of adjusting this and it stays in place while I’m running. I’d purchase this again.

This is my second time purchasing a NoxGear item and I cannot recommend them enough for anyone running near traffic during low-light conditions. Before I started using the original Tracer, I had several close calls with cars blowing stop signs when Im running through intersections; cars getting reeeaally close when theres no sidewalk and Im on the shoulder; etc. Ive used headlights, Ive used reflectors, but nothing seems to work as well as the Tracer. It has drastically reduced my close encounters of the automobile kind experiences. The Tracer 360 is a wonderful step up from the original. The internal rechargeable battery is great and lasts longer than using rechargeables in the original tracer. Its a bit lighter, too. Higher waterproof rating is also a welcome change (though I had no issues with the original in the rain). I cannot recommend these enough for runners.

On the morning of 9/7/22, I was invited to join a group of women at 4:20 AM on 9/9/22 to FinishLizasRun, and the organizer encouraged all runners to wear illuminated vests or to carry flashlights. I checked local businesses in my city, hoping to buy an illuminated vest, but none were available. I logged onto Amazon and learned that the Noxgear Tracer 2 could be delivered by 9/8/22, so I ordered it, not really expecting it to be delivered so quickly. As I was mowing my lawn the morning of 9/8, my vest was delivered to me by a friendly driver! I wore it to run several hours before dawn the next morning, and many other runners liked it and wanted to know where I got it. It’s comfortable and easy to use. I ordered a size S, which fits ladies size XS-S-M.

I bought this to walk our dog at night. I have received multiple inquiries and compliments about this. It’s easy to put on and charges pretty fast. Not sure how long each charge lasts but so far, it has been great.
