The snappily named 2C permanent is quite an unusual light (to us) - it is a bracket mounted rear light with built in reflector, which is powered by USB instead of replaceable batteries
It's our go-to rear Brompton light and we like the fact it's rechargeable rather than using those old fashioned batteries!
We think it's called permanent as it mounts to the bike (rack or Brompton bracket) using two screws - -then the light itself snaps out of the mounting for recharging
Built in Z reflector for safety when the light is off / has no power / to comply with the highway code
It has a bracket which fits permanently to the rack (or Brompton reflector bracket) and can connect using 50mm or 80mm widths (Brompton uses 50mm)
Patented lens system creates two wide light areas from two high output LEDs
Power lasts for approx 15 hours at full power - as the power (from the lithium battery) starts to reduce, the light gradually dims
There is a battery power indicator on the light - when the light shows yellow, please charge
The battery charge indicator also shows the charging state - yellow means it is charging, off means it is fully charged
The light is removed from the bracket to charge (this allows access to the USB socket located on the back of the light)
On (steady)

It does have a built in reflector too

Bright and long-lasting battery life
The light is bright enough to been seen by motorists behind. The built in reflector is a useful addition.
On the version I have, the usb charging port is covered when fitted to the mount.
Relatively simple to fit but you will have to remove the rear brake.
Great light but careful going down potholes
I had this light for some time and found it to hold a good charge and illuminate very well. Unfortunately, after going down one of our UK’s poorly maintained roads and going into a pothole it detached and before I could retrieve it a vehicle run it over! Gutted! Try your best to avoid the ever present canyons on our UK roads, it’s a minefield out there!!
Good light but has a fault
This is a really nice usb chargeable rear light that fits Bromptons and other pannier racks. Mounted on a Brompton it just clears the ground when the bike is in the folded position. The light is bright and the reflector is large. There is however a major design fault - the micro usb port has no cover at all and you can see into the internal part of the light through it. All other lights, Garmins etc have a rubber or plastic cover over the usb port so I'm guessing it will not like rain or dirt in there. I cant believe this was overlooked during the design of the light! I have put black PvC insulating tape over it which seems to work but makes it a tighter fit into the mounting bracket.
Brilliant USB rechargeable light
A brilliant light that you fit in place of the rear reflector (it has an inbuilt reflector) above the rear brakes or on the rack (if fitted). Nice and bright even in daylight and dead easy to charge as the light unit simply pops out of the mounting - but no danger of it doing that when riding as it is very firmly held in place. Obviously time between charges is entirely dependent upon use but I would say the stated 15 your run time is accurate.
