[C4 Rides] Night Main Light for Road and Mountain Biking

[Earnhardt, Sean]

Everyone,

                I had sent this out last year and quite a few folks bought one (or two).  They have definitely lasted for over a year and, for $20, you can't really beat that.  So, in the hopes that a few of you plan to ride nights with us, here is the info again.

After talking on Tuesday night, I decided I'd send this link out again.  Price is below $20 for a 1200 Lumen light.  You can't even buy replacement batteries that cheap.  I ended up getting 3 lights in total.  One for the head, one for the MTB handlebars, one for the road handlebars.  However, if I keep all three battery packs charged, that still gives me a spare pack for each bike.



I won't speak to the long term quality of these, particularly the battery life, as I've had my main unit on for about a year; but for $20 it seems as good as any other I've seen.  Also, I did test mine last week.  On the low setting (I would call the normal setting) it ran for OVER 2 hours and 45 minutes.  I'm not sure how much longer it would have lasted, but I had to go to bed and figured 2:45 was longer than I wanted to be riding in the cold and dark anyway!  I've heard it can be 4 to 6 hours at least...



So, here you go...
