I’ve been using another B&M Senso light (the Eyc T) for a few years and have never had an issue with it switching off when it shouldn’t. The daytime brightness seems to be quite reasonable, and most of the beam at night is focused where it should be (on the path in front of me). I’ve never had drivers or other riders complain about the light’s brightness.
The one complaint I have had is when the bike is at *very *low speeds (often when I am walking with the bike), the light blinks. It’s not particularly garish compared to many blinky lights, but the fact that it is always on is annoying and has led to some awkward situations. I’d prefer if it didn’t blink at low speeds, or at least not during the daytime.
