The light is nice and strong and it has a back red light too which is great. I've modded it with a phone carrier, mirrors and rear carrier.
If Interested:

Anyways, just wanted to help those of you who might want to know about how their service is.
Just to note..
when we first got it, had 2 flats on rear tire. I put that green slime on it and havent had any since.
brakes suck. Its mechanical. I tell my boys to plan ahead before stopping to slow themselves down. As long as you manage that expectation, its fine.

Can anyone chime in who is knowledgeable how they compare and if this is a good deal and should pull trigger?

My biggest gripe about this bike is since I've experienced a decent torque sensor versus this bikes cadence sensor. Essentially what it boils down to is this bike has five locked in speeds. 7mph, 12mph 18mph 22mph and 28mph. They call it pedal assist levels, but really it just means while you're peddling it will accelerate you to that speed and then only provide enough assistance to keep you going that exact speed.
It works fine, but with a true torque sensor, you can pedal at any speed and feel the boost so it's more like a real bike ride. I'm thinking about upgrading for next summer simply because I find myself using the throttle on this bike quite a bit to hit the in-between speeds, and I would like to feel like I'm actually riding a bike most of the time.
You don't really get a Work out with this bike, but it's a total blast to ride and has a ton of power. I regularly pull my two and 5-year-old in a bike trailer behind it with no issue even going up steep hills.
The other thing I would complain about is they put cheap tires on the bike. They are actually nice and knobby, but they puncture fairly easily. Definitely invest in some slime and put it in before your first ride.
