The NiteRider Solas 30 Cycling Tail Light  includes one Rubber strap type mounting bracket and one Charging Cable, USB to plug into the computer or wall outlet adapter. It does NOT include the wall adapter used to plug the unit into the wall outlet. The NiteRider Solas 30 Cycling Tail Light is rechargeable using a USB or regular Phone Charger. The same charger most android phones and tablets use. The charging port on the NiteRider Solas 30 Cycling Tail Light is on the bottom covered by a protective weather proof rubber flap. The NiteRider Solas 30 Cycling Tail Light  indicates low charge when the center white lens illuminates red. The NiteRider Solas 30 Cycling Tail Light center white lens illuminates RED while the NiteRider Solas 30 Cycling Tail Light  is Charging then BLUE when fully Charged.

In your honor, we lit 15 different fireworks while we searched for the gloves of your choosing and ever so gently bagged them up as Jimi Hendrix's rendition of the Star Spangled Banner rang out over the speakers, summoning the most majestic bald eagle to swoop in on this glorious moment and pick up your gloves for delivery. We stood in awe of this moment and wished your gloves a wonderful journey both to your door step and on the trail! Your order confirmation is below."
