I found this product on Amazon and other websites for over $50! When I got mine I was worried about the quality but Ive been using it for over 6 months now and still works great! I got a fantastic deal on this product. Definitely worth it!

I was skeptical about this product and Im just writing a review because ive been using it for 5 months and still works amazing! My dog ran away about a month ago and if it wasnt for this harness I would've never been able to track em. Also he ran out in the street while it was getting dark and a car coming was able to see him. I swear if he wasnt wearing his vest he would've been ran over. Thank you for the product and quality. Thunder Gifts THANK YOU!

This harness works very well for our 27 Lb dog. I was able to use a leash on the ring attached to the harness and worked well walking our girl to the dog park. Our dog is very active and likes to run at the dog exercise area near our home. It is a wooded park and she runs through the woods and plays with other dogs. The harness held up well and she is able to run full speed with the harness on. Winter is coming soon and it will get dark early. I mainly purchased this harness to be able to see her in the park at night as she is off leash and free to run.

I bought a version in the past that you had to use batteries and Im so happy I came across this product. Came in the mail fast and the USB Charger is everything. The battery last a good solid 5 hours. I walk my dog every day and I usually have to charge it every 3 days or so. I like to charge it the car while we are going to the dog park.

I have been looking for products to make us more visible at night and was discouraged at the lack of products I've seen out there. I went to pet stores, REI, running stores. The only things I found were little dim lights and reflective vests. Not what I was looking for. I saw this on Instagram and was like Yes! This is it!.
PROS:
Easy on and off
USB charger
Multiple settings with different colors and light pulses

Absolutely love how this looks and can be seen. We get tons of people asking us about it and where to get one. Here in Pacific Northwest, the winter is rough to go for walk... rainy, dark... plus a black dog... being seen is vital. This works perfectly. Only thing to note is the size. My dog measure: 18 (neck) x 30 (chest) x 29 (belly) (don't judge =P). So Large seemed right. But the neck strap is just little loose still with buckle to its end. The waist is only a few inches from the closest end. So, I think a medium may be better, not really sure. Otherwise love it.

Saw this on FB and soooo glad I bought it! Traditional lighted collars would get completely lost in our golden retrievers's long bushy thick hair and were useless. We camp a lot and our dogs are off leash so it was imperative to find something bright, long lasting with plenty of lights/illumination. We saw the ad on Facebook and clicked through and ordered it on Amazon. The large is perfect for our 65 lb furry pup and perfectly visible! We were so pleased that we posted our dog's photo with vest on to FB and several of our friends immediately ordered a vest and posted photos on FB. You're welcome for the free advertising :)

Great product, just what I have been looking for.
We have been using these, I bought 2, for 4 months. I am very pleased and would highly recommend these harnesses to anyone that does any amount of dusk through dawn walkies. The battery life on these are amazing. We generally have a +45 minute walk in the morning, that tends to begin pre-dawn in the winter, and another +45 minute walk in the evening, usually at sundown in the winter, and I have gone 2 weeks without charging.

When Daylight Savings ended, it's pretty dark when I walk my Yellow Labrador at night. I wear bright clothing to be seen, but had trouble finding something that I could use on my dog that didn't get lost in his fur like lighted collars do. This harness is great. It fits nicely over his existing harness he wears on walks, and I usually use it in red mode so that it doesn't affect my night vision as much. The battery holds a great charge. We usually go on a 1/2 hour walk nightly and I only have to charge it once every few weeks. I have yet to wash it, but tried removing the lighting component and that was pretty easy as well. I highly recommend this for anyone looking to give their dog more visibility.

A wonderful product! It met or exceeded my expectations as a Safety device at night. It is much brighter then I thought it would be. I can keep track of my dog from over 200 yards away in the fields of the farm. Rugged enough that my 150 lbs Anatolian shepherd can explore the farmland without ruining it. Lightweight and adjustable fits my dog well and so comfortable that my dog doesn't seem to notice. The battery does last a long time too.
Sonia
THIS IS A MUST FOR DOG OWNERS. Love this product! People and dogs are SO invisible to vehicles after dark. Reflectorized vests help but this is the best product out there I’ve seen so far. The flashing LED makes it difficult NOT to be seen from any angle. I love that my dogs can be seen even without external lighting (like on some of the trails where we walk or run). If for any reason my dogs break free I can see where they run off to. Thank you so much TG!

The visibility with this is amazing! I have a dog with a longer coat that will cover most lighted collars/harnesses, but this one is the perfect combo of lightweight, reflective, adjustable, and highly visible. You won't regret this purchase!
TuVieja
This is what I've needed all along. Wish I got it sooner. Love how bright this is and it really helps my black dog stand out at night more than just an LED collar... because he has a longer coat that tends to hide the collars and reduce their visibility. This is a great solution for that! He loves wearing it. Love the sequence options and that you can choose so many colors.

I am so thankful that this product got posted to my Facebook page from a friend. I absolutely love this product especially in the winter time. As we all know, it gets dark so early as the year progresses so it is so wonderful to have this product as a safety feature. I have a smaller black dog that I run with at night in the neighborhood. I always worry that a car will not see him or me when we cross the street. Not anymore!!! I recommend this product to anyone that walks their dog after dusk. I have three friends that I told about the product that also ordered it and love it!! It is very easy to put on and I use it with my Min Pin's puppia harness. It is rechargeable and lasts for weeks. You will love it!!

We bought this for keeping track of our dog when going outside at night. We have about 4 acres of land, and this vest allows us to see her easily from inside the house anywhere she goes in the yard. She is a black lab/hound mix and about 50-55lbs. We got a large and it fits great with tons of room for further adjustment. We probably could have gotten away with a medium honestly. The vest itself is very bright and reflective even when turned off. We put it on her as soon as the sun goes down and leave it on her until bedtime, and she's never once tried to bite at it or get it off, so I'd say it's comfortable for her.

The USB is great! After purchasing a multitude of LED-lighted leashes that would stop functioning after a week or so, we tried one of these. It works great! I think the harness works better than having an LED leash because you're not tugging and stretching the cabling between LEDs as you would in a leash. Your Leash actually connects to a sturdy ring sewn into the harness. If your dog ever tugs or pulls on the leash, it won't affect the LED lights in the harness.

This product is perfect! My dog is so visible.
I bought an XL for my 70lbs german shepherd, I should probably have gone with L. It fits him but the chest strap is as tight as it gets which leaves a lot of the strap just hanging. There are little fasteners to hold it in place but the strap is too long to use those, I had to be a little creative to make it work.
JJ
Wonderful Product! The vest is working beautifully. I bought it after our 4-month old black Standard Poodle puppy Jasper was clipped by a car as it came racing around a corner at night in our neighborhood (narrow streets with no sidewalks). Jasper was on a flexi-lead, but the car was going so fast that I couldn't reel him in before the car was on top of us. Thankfully he wasn't hurt, but it was obvious that we needed to find something to make him for visible at night. The vest is really well designed -- easy to charge, to put on, and to adjust. And now on our walks, Jasper positively glows. It's actually kind of mesmerizing to watch him walking along in front of me. It reminds me of watching a campfire.

This product is really great. I feel 100x safer walking my dog in the busier part of town we live in. Definitely brings attention to her with everyone stopping to say how awesome it is, so hoping all the drivers notice too! It’s not too bright that it blinds me being close to her, just a soft but affective glow. I like that the harness itself is also reflective on its own.
Beck S.
I just wanted to share with those of you who are searching for a well made lighted harness for your dog that this is an outstanding product. Not only does it show up very well in the dark, but it fits well, is sturdy and RECHARGABLE! Even though Tracy looks a little sad she is just begging to go out lol. Thank you Thunder Gifts! Outstanding!
Jessica
I love this! My dog is sorta meh about it. :D Once I figured out how to stow the excess strap (I probably should have bought a medium for my 45 pound shepherd mix), it fit nicely and wore well on a 45-minute run. It's nice and easy to put on and remove, and while I thought I would have to adjust the neck every time, it turns out even properly adjusted it slides easily over my dog's head. I love the leash attachment, too. It doubles as my dog poop bag holder. It's nice and bright, awesome color color choices. Since my runs with the dog are almost always in the dark, this is just what I was hoping it would be.
Anthony S.
I bought this for captain and he freaking loves it!
Betty B.
Was amazed at how bright it actually is!! I almost had to put on sunglasses!! LOL All the color options are great, and it makes it easy to find your pup should you let them loose at night. The harness seems to be pretty strong. Will have to see how long the battery lasts, as we only had it on for a couple of hours. Also need to figure out what to do with the dangling straps, someone thought they were to chew on, of course. LOL
Tiff B.
Thank you Thundergifts! I LOVE LOVE LOVE this product! I have two black border collies that do not like harnesses. They actually like these ones! They are super easy to get in to. The Medium fits them perfectly. The colors are vibrant. You can also leave them turned off. The vest itself is neon yellow and is rechargeable with an included USB cord.
Customer service (for the return) was absolutely top-notch! Quick and super easy. Four of my friends have already bought this, and people I see on the street all ask about it. This is definitely a must buy!!
Dee Z.
This is the most perfect item for any dog who walks at night! As advertised, this is NOT to be used to attach the leash to‼️It is strictly used for your dogs safety so they can be easily seen at night.
If you want to attach a leash, ONLY ATTACH A LEASH TO YOUR DOGS REGULAR COLLAR, NOT THIS ONE!!!
The lights are so bright! No worries about batteries because it is charged by a USB port. I have the glow dog collars, but this is even better because you can see the dog from many angles! Your dog is worth spending this money on! It might seem expensive, but in reality, it’s not because the quality is superb! You get what you pay for and this NOXGEAR LIGHTHOUND ILLUMINATING HARNESS IS WORTH EVERY DOLLAR!

I have a 16 week old Siberian husky that I walk early mornings and evenings when it is dark. This harness is awesome. I love the color changing option and the visibility is great. The harness also works well as a harness which was important to me with his breed. It's also easier to put on compared to others I have purchased. He is 30# and I bought he Large. It fits him now as small as it goes and will grow with him. I have had neighbors and motorists stop and comment on our visibility and how great we look. I have the matching Tracer360. I love how we can coordinate and change colors. It's fun! I highly recommend!!
Cam
Very very bright! The straps are very easy to adjust, I love the cam lever system. The whole system seems very water resistant for walking in the rain. The control unit is large and there is a quarter sized cap on the dog side that could irritate the dog's spine. (The cap is for removing the light system if/when you take it apart to wash it.) I personally would prefer just one color and no fancy changes and a smaller control unit. Also, you may be able to order down a size from what what the size measurement chart indicates, because the straps are very long, lots of extra which I guess you could trim off.

Pta chevere esta webada. Se la compre a mi perro y de la pm. A veces me llega al pincho sacarlo pero normal ps. Perfecto!

Love this harness have been looking for such a product for a long time. Fits comfortably too. I had to send back the first harness. Although I ordered the correct size and fit, I forgot the fact that my dog wears a Thundershirt or sweater/jacket in cold weather, and it was way too tight. I didn't appreciate paying the shipping fee when returning it. The replacement and larger size fits perfect. I get so many compliments, but most important, I can see my dog perfectly at night when he is off his leash and when he is on the leash. Makes him easier to spot by cars when I'm crossing the street, he's small and hard to see in the dark. No t tourists tend to be very careless and in a rush. There is a screw type device under the cap that controls the lighting function that was loose and wouldn't tighten securely no matter what way I turned it. Eventually I did get it secured. Didn't want it to fall off and lose it, if possible. Nevertheless, I would buy this again. It can save your dogs life. I suggest people buy one for themselves too if they live in the suburbs. Unfortunately a man and his dog were killed by an underaged motorist while he was walking his dog. The bright lights of these devices may have saved their lives.

This is the best of the many light solutions I have tried on my black and white, long hair, 130lb, Alaskan Malumate. It's easy to put on, adjust to size, turn on and off, has many color options, is bright, rechargeable, and it's the best at being seen from many directions. I have several other lighted collars that are also easy to put on, adjust to size, turn on and off, have many color options, are bright, and rechargeable - but this vest is better at being seen from all directions. The reason for 4 instead of 5 stars is because the second time I plugged in the charging cable, when I wiggled the cable end a little to make sure it was securely attached to the charging port the charging port broke off inside the opening. I really like the vest so I returned the broken one for a full refund and got a new one. While I'm being more careful and gentle when plugging in the charging cable, I'm hoping the one that broke was defective as at $60 the vest is very expensive and shouldn't brake so easily - I've plugged in charging cables hundreds of times into many different devices without their ports breaking.

UPDATE. 4 months later we are still very happy with this harness. We don't use it often, maybe once a week, but every time it is great. We get lots of compliments, and the battery life is good. As previously, I highly recommend this harness.
This harness makes our solid black 20lbs chihuahua - black lab mix puppy clearly visible in the dark, which is very important since we go on the evening bike rides. We bought a size medium and it fits well, with plenty of room to grow. For a reference, she is in the Jack Russell size range, a tad smaller than a typical Beagel, just in case someone isnt sure about the sizing. So I'd say anything smaller than a fully grown Russell might consider a small.
The harness part is good too, we use it to attach her bike leash and she does great. Overall, so far we are happy with this harness. Let's see if it lasts.
Labradors
Have only had this product a few weeks but so far LOVE it for making our chocolate and black labradors more visible on their after-dark walks. The rechargeable nature is very nice. You can select between flashing (which gave my husband a headache when he walked them), solid, or soft transitions between the colors. Flashing might be more visible but obviously isn't for everyone. Some say they aren't sturdy enough to attach the leash to so we haven't tried. Ours are pretty laid back pups so we might be able to - but if yours are strong and pullers I would use them just for the lights and not the harness.

One of the challenges of having a greyhound is finding harnesses that fit with that deep chest. One might think just buying a larger harness should solve that problem, but it's not about the size, but rather the shape of the body. I've only found one harness that really fits well, and it was designed specifically to be able to accommodate greyhounds.
With that said, this harness seems to be on the large side and has about an average fit for a deep chested dog. The light module never seems to stay up top and slides to the side very easily. I'm sure I could limit this a bit if I tighten the harness more, but I have to keep it a little loose to allow full range of motion due to their long legs and a longer distance to reach down to the ground.
Margot
Excellent Visilbility! This continues to work well for us. Our dog has a heavy coat but you can still see the colors from a distance. Many bright colors to choose from. My only suggestion would be to change the buckles on the straps. The straps slide through a buckle and the extra strap gets rolled up and velcroed to itself. With this design, it is hard to remember how to correctly put it on. I wish the straps had buckles that snapped together so you just unsnapped and put on and then snapped closed. As it is, if you need to undo the straps, you have to undo the velcroed strap to loosen it, then tighten it and then reroll the loose/excess strap. Excellent visibility though and I still would highly recommend, just take a picture of how the harness has to lay to slip it over the legs and head, so you don't mess with loosening the straps every time you use it.

This is such a great device to keep your dog safe at night! I saw this on another dog at the dog park, and had to get one since I often take my high energy dog for runs at night. They really did think of everything on this:
1. It's really bright, and there are sooooo many options for light colors. In fact, it's almost blinding if you look at it at night.
2. It's rechargeable! I hate getting batteries. The charge also seems to last a while. Other people have complained that it doesn't come with a wall outlet, but I have so many that I was actually glad to not have another one to just put in a drawer somewhere.
3. Sizing is easily adjustable. My dog has a 27" chest, so he can fit both a medium and large. I bought large just because I figure I may get a larger dog in the future, but I'm probably not ever getting a smaller dog. It was easy to change the straps. And the best part was that they attached velcro to the straps so you can wrap the extra strap and not have it drag! I can't tell you how much I love that -- I've bought other dog accessories (like a dog backpack) where you're supposed to just trim the excess strap or let it drag, and I hate that because I want multiple sized dogs to be able to use it.
4. Durability! Okay, I have only had it for a week, but my dog can seriously pull when he sees something. I bought a cheap light up leash that he yanked and broke it on the first day. I bought a light up collar that he broke on day 5. So, yeah, those leashes were a lot cheaper, but I got what I paid for and just wasted money. (Plus, those other ones often require obscure batteries that can't be easily found.) Seeing that I foresee it lasting a while, this is a great investment for our safety.
5. Ability to attach a leash. Yes, there is a ring where you can attach the leash, and it doesn't seem to stress the vest.
The only thing that could make this product better is if it were more of a harness than a vest. I wish that it came with a chest plate that you could attach so that the stress would be on the chest instead of the neck. However, I still think it's a 5 star product since most people don't use their dogs to pull them on a bike.

We have been using it for 1 week. It is amazing. At first I wasn’t sure my dog would wear it very long because the battery pack is large and it sits between his shoulder blades. It looks uncomfortable. But my boy doesn’t seem to mind at all. Then I found that adjusting the little straps and dealing with the Velcro wrap around plus the excess strap material was annoying and I didn’t like that part. However, the bottom line is that my dog willingly wears it and he stands out brighter than a Christmas tree and in our dark neighborhood he is easy to see! The first time we used it I hooked the leash to the leash ring on the harness. My bully pulled and pulled loosening up the straps of the harness. I didn’t like that so the next time (after readjusting everything) I attached the leash to his collar. That works better for him. You CAN use the designated leash ring that is on the harness. My dog just kept pulling and that would lift up the battery pack and loosen up the straps so I opt not to use it. I prefer to have the harness sit snugly and not move around. If the battery pack was smaller it probably wouldn’t do that as much but it is big (on a small dog) so the less awkward my dog feels the better the experience is for him. The harness serves its purpose so I am very happy with it. BTW I still have not had to recharge it and it has been used for at least 3 hours total. I recommend it.

5 stars- cool factor
5 stars- user friendly
5 stars - fit (large on my 70 lb. Lab)
5 stars- overall
Just did a 5 mile run with my dog and the vest was perfect. Easily visible from all sides. The darker the night the brighter it looks. 8 colors and 6 color changing patterns. This thing rocks. My Choc Lab was invisible at night. Not any more. I love it. Kinda pricey was my first thought... Get what you pay for. Well designed.

We bought this as a Christmas present to our 60-pound boxer-bulldog mix. She's very energetic, and we take her to the North Georgia mountains to see my parents (they're on 30 acres of wooded land). This is perfect for letting her out at night especially, where we could often hear her running, but couldn't see her. Fit was very versatile. Size "large" fits a big range of "large" dogs -- my big-chested, small-necked boxer can use this just as well as my parents' fat-necked, round-chested weimaraners.
