Stay Seen on Roads and Trails - With 500-lumen LED and 360° reflective strap
One ultra-bright front LED produces 500 lumens while rear safety-warning lights combine with a prolonged reflective elastic strap to create all-round visibility. The stated beam reaches clear visibility up to 25 metres.
Improved visibility makes roadside crossings and approaching traffic easier to spot, reducing collision risk. The reflective strap increases detection by drivers and other path users from every angle.
Light Where You Need It - Thanks to 90° adjustable beam
A 90 degree adjustable mount allows the beam to tilt so illumination can be aimed from level to downward angles, lighting the path between 0 and 25 metres ahead. Mechanical tilt adjusts quickly without tools.
Precise beam direction helps reveal roots, steps and changes in gradient on downhill stretches. That targeted lighting reduces trip hazards and keeps focus on footing rather than fumbling for a handheld torch.
Long Sessions Without Battery Swaps - Thanks to 1500 mAh USB-C rechargeable battery
A built-in 1500 mAh battery recharges via the included USB-C cable, with a charge time of about 5.5 hours and run times ranging from 3 to 6 hours depending on output mode.
Multiple runs or long dog walks can be covered without carrying spare batteries. Quick USB-C recharging makes top-ups simple between outings.
