I picked up a set of the lights. No flashing option on the front or back seems the only major functional drawback. Only IP44 water protection. Not used them in anger yet but the beam does seem well shaped.

Still using (occasionally) the same lidl workstand, which looks identical, bought a few years ago.  The main button of the front LED light set I bought ~3yrs ago, broke & pushed into the body of the light after a handful of uses.  I bodged a fix but never really used it again.   Track pump bought at same time as lights, had a problem too.  Perhaps they've improved now.

I bought a set of panniers for my Wife's bike 2 years ago. 

I hate them. 

They are used to store tools in my garage now.  The clips and straps are neither adjustable or in the right place.
