BS 6102-3 Bicycle Lights

[rogerzilla]

A personal massager/vibrator sold from the back pages of many disreputable publications under the tagline "Light the fire...every time!" quoted a BS number that turned out to apply to telecommunications equipment.

Found a compliant pannier rack mount light/reflector*

*Does the marking apply to the light? I suspect not; probably just the reflector.

Edit:
Link to the product on the Cateye website: https://cateye.com/intl/products/safety_lights/TL-LD580G/

Meets light standards (StVZO, RKF and Danish)
Meets reflector standards (StVZO Z, BS, UN IVA, UN IA and CPSC)

There is a seat post mount version which has a reflector that meets standards, but no claims made about the light:

I have 3* of these lights (the non rack version). They are great. The auto on/off is really useful. Tho apparently I'm somewhere dark enough they are always on when moving.

They fit in any cat eye rear light bracket. Meaning you can also fit them to a rack via the cateye rack mount. This means you can easily remove them if necessary. Personally I'd say the non rack version plus the rack mount is the more flexible setup.

*One in active use, 2 purchased for a project I've yet to use them on.

Trouble is, I swore off Cateye when I had a couple of EL-300 front lights in succession which both parted company from their brackets and permanently disassembled themselves.
I've just bought the rack mount version ... for a rack which already has a cateye mount on it (for a defunct Cateye tail light) 

Looks like the rack mount version's light is StVZO compliant; the blurb on the CatEye website doesn't suggest the light on the seat-post mount version is. ( - Although the reflector is compliant.)
