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!

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 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.

Just received in mail. So happy I listened to my husband and got this one. I saw others that were about half the price, but you get what you pay for. Packaging was solid, and the vest came charged and ready to use (although I still charged it a little bit). I have seen other people on runs at night with this while driving and you can definitely see from far away. A lot of options in regards to colors, temps of lights, flickering vs solid. It’s easy to put on and adjust to fit you. I was worried about feeling constricted or having to fuss with something (like those old headphone wires we used to have to battle with) by it is so light weight I forget i have it on. The vest came with very easy to understand instructions and with stickers guiding you on how to turn on off and whatnot.. If your wondering if you should go with cheaper versions, i think you should just splurge and get this product. Like my husband said to me, It’s a lot cheaper than getting hurt or hit by someone when out for your runs. So going with a product that isn’t going to fail you on a dark run (or walking a dog at night) is worth it in my opinion.

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.

First off the price is a little steep and i think that is due to the quality of this light "vest" and materials used here and the optional chest light is a very specifically made product that the manufacturers probably have to pay a higher price to make because the unique clip design and materials that make it up probably costs them a bit more as well so the customer pays a little more for these products but with that being said I'll give you my opinion to why this product is worth the money. First off the high visibility yellow chest strap is not cheaply made in fact it is double the thickness of other running safety vests I've used that didn't hold up and the buckles with this strap don't move with running motions and that alone is worth it because cheaper vests will bounce and the chest buckles eventually loosen when going on a decent exercise but i haven't had that issue with this noxgear light vest. Secondly the little globe nodules that you press to loosen or tighten the light straps keep this vest in place the entire time i am exercising which is incredible because i walk anywhere from 20-30 miles everytime i use this and it never once moves. It is super bright w/o the optional chest light but the chest light is absolutely great if you want to see in front of you where there are little to no street lights and it definitely helps when you are on sidewalks and cars are driving by facing you with blinding headlights. The size chart was right on for me because it said just pick the size you usually buy in shirts and i wear a 2x and so i bought the xl one and the fit was fantastic and there is a little bit of room left in the straps if i needed to adjust it at all. The buckle in the front makes taking this thing on and off a breeze and the functionality is very simple with the on and off switch on the back pad and so many colors/light modes that allow anyone to be safely seen at any given time. I've had compliments on it a couple of times already and i just started wearing it. I look at the price this way...why waste money on cheaper vests that don't last and the visibility of those is terrible compared to this one. Just spend the money because you can't put a price on your safety and buy something that will last. They apparently pick winners in drawings if you promote this on social media and tag them every so often and they pay the winner back full price on their vest but i don't have social media so i can't answer to whether or not that works but I'm very happy i bought this and i highly recommend this product to anybody who runs or walks during the dark hours.

Nice and bright for running at night. Charges quickly and fits great over a running tank or can be adjusted to fit over a jacket. Many colors to choose from including steady or flashing or fade options.

Amazing visibility, easy to adjust for a perfect fit, very lightweight. I feel much safer running at dusk or after dark. Highly recommend this for anyone who runs or walks in areas of low visibility.
