The light turns on / off with a single hold, double click changes into high power mode, and a single press cycles between modes, the light has a mode memory. There is excellent side visibility and this light has CatEye's wide beam OptiCube lens technology. 

The light comes with a FlexTight Bracket to fit handlebars with a diameter of 22 - 35mm, and is also compatible with frame mounted adaptors (not included). The AMPP400 has an improved release button which is made easier to remove the light from the bracket. 

Cateye AMPP 500S (HL-EL085S RC) front light weighs 106 grams 

If you have lost your Volt 400 from your Brompton, this light will fit onto the bracket. If you want to fit to a Brompton on you will need:
a replacement dynamo lamp bracket only (code: Q101219 reference: QVBKTFLAMDYN-LED) used in combination with
a CatEye center fork light bracket (#5342440) - this is just for the CateEye adaptor and will not fit without the correct Brompton bracket (we have tried)!
