Bontrager Flare 1 Tail Light Review

Bontrager s flare rt and ion 200 rt light set can be seen at any time of day.

Bontrager flare 1 tail light review.

It has several different settings it is bright but the best part has been the battery life. 610 meters of visibility. The bontrager flare rt is a favorite among many riders and the fact that it comes in an upgraded version makes it even more desirable. Three ultra bright leds provide over 75 hours of run time on two aaa batteries included and cast up to 2000 ft.

For such tiny lights the 200 lumen ion 200 rt front and flare rt rear daytime lights pack a lot of power bontrager says they re visible from 1 25 miles away. I guess bontrager was trying to save a buck or two because it s obviously less material and much worse build quality. Stay safe out there and head over to the bontrager website to check on the bontrager flare r taillight for yourself. Serving up 75 hrs.

At a pricepoint of 59 99 the bontrager flare r taillight is an excellent purchase for any rider who has to combat the evils of traffic. I ve found the bontrager flare rt to be a reliable winter bike light riding through sopping wet roads and pouring rain has done nothing to dampen its spirits. Of runtime on only 2 aaa batteries the bontrager flare 1 rear bike light s ultra bright leds help you stay seen from one destination to the next and plenty more after. I have used this lite a lot and still on the first battery.

The light is great but this new clasp is terrible. The micro usb charging flap is. The upgrade has seen it become more powerful by 30 as it now has a maximum output of 90 lumens and is 36 smaller. This light has been awesome.

It is not the one shown in the picture and when mounted looks awful in general and especially compared to the old one. The flare 1 is ready for all weather duty.
