I bought both lights from a seller on EBay for my wife and my Creos. The 300 is bigger in size and light output. I’m only looking for “be seen” lights and not nighttime lights. Anyone have experience with the Ravemen lights? I really like how they mount under my computer using the “outfront“ mount.

I use a FR300 on a out front Garmin mount on the lower mount on my Creo. It works very well as a "be seen" light. it has side visibility that many lights do not have. I would recommend it to others.
It is a poor night riding light since it is only 300 lumens, and the angle of light projection is determined by the angle of your Garmin mount. Once, out on a later ride, I had to rotate the mount downward to illuminate the road. I have a few high powered headlights for actual night riding, but didn't have those on that ride.
I can't comment on the 160 or 300, but I have a had Ravemen TR150 rear light for over a year, I use it 2-4 times/week from April to October. My typical ride is 2 hours; I like that I am able to choose from a number of different light patterns, solid, flashing, intensity, etc. I really like that when the battery is no longer capable of maintaining my chosen flashing pattern, it will switch to a pattern with a lower draw.
Most of my riding done in daylight hours, on secondary roads, or on Multiple Use trails. I always use both front and rear lights, and have had more than a few drivers comment on how effective my rear light is.
This year I bought a second TR150 to carry in my rear bag JIC.
