Couldn't figure out how to open up the tail light to insert the AAA batteries. Thanks for the tip. I also had the same question as Sal above.

Thank you SOO much. I bought this light awhile ago and couldn't open the tail light to save my life. I was really worried that I would be invisible to cars approaching me from the rear but I couldn't afford to replace the back light simply because I couldn't open it to put the batteries in. Thank you so so so so much. omg. Thank you SOO much. I bought this light awhile ago and couldn’t open the tail light to save my life.

If you're looking at the front of the light, where the LEDs shine through, and the flat side with the Bell logo is at the top, and the curved part is at the bottom. At the apex of that curve, between the red rubber gasket and the back of the light, there's a small slit. Stick something thin in that slit (such as a dime or a wide, thin flathead screwdriver blade) and give it a twist. It should come right apart.
