So let’s take a look at the second most important decision making tool we can use when shopping online, price. Whether your goal is to just get the cheapest Lights available, or to get the best quality at a reasonable price, there’s always going to be a need to do your research on price. Moon MX GPS Mount Light price analysis Our advice is to take your time studying factors like the reputation of the brand, the materials used to manufacture the product and also comparing it to other products of a similar price in the Lights category. Remember also that bigger lights have bigger batteries. I like to ride with around 800 lumens but I almost always ride with lights that have far bigger max numbers. By powering them down I leave myself extra flexibility plus I get big burn time numbers. Buy more light than you need and never leave yourself stressed. What kind of mount should a bike light have? Before you go we’ve put together some top tips for you to consider when you’re buying any cycle products online. These tips can apply whether you’re a new rider or an experienced cyclist. How to shop for cycling stuff, smartly and safely. If you want big power, or long runtimes, then the MagicShine RN3000 is an excellent budget option to get the job done. The heart of the light is a 10,000 mAh battery and it's from this foundation that everything builds. Using the massive battery, you can power all the way up for a 3000-lumen option that will cover you in even the most demanding trail situations. Alternatively, you can power down the light and extend the runtime. 750 lumens is enough to ride comfortably at speed even without street lights and at that power, the RN3000 will run for thirteen and a half hours. You might even consider this light as a commuter option because of how infrequently you'll need to think about charging it. Knowing that the USB-C charge port can also charge a phone in an emergency is a nice bonus feature. The only downside is a slightly odd control scheme. There are two bulbs on the light and for some reason you can choose to run either one or the other or both. Using both gives a better light shape and longer burn times but since the option is there, changing modes means stepping through more options. It's a small annoyance given the price and features but it is worth mentioning.

We then wanted to get a bit more specific and only look at Moon products that are listed in the Lights category. The Lezyne KTV Drive Pro+ rear light is the option when you want an inexpensive light with a lot of power. The price is outstanding and there's all-day performance with a burn time of 10-hours and 30-minutes even at the max 150-lumen day flash setting. Mounting is a wide and simple rubber strap that you can easily stretch around even the deepest aero seatpost. When it’s time to charge the light, you’ll get a warning based on the small status light that turns on during the hold to turn-on procedure. If needed, charging happens with an integrated USB charging tongue that needs no cord. Of course no cord needed does also mean you have to remove the light to charge it. Although Lezyne doesn’t splurge on fancy features, the Lezyne KTV Drive Pro+ rear light is great for those who want maximum lumens for not a lot of money. If you are shopping for a light to make yourself visible there's a lot of flexibility. A really good reflector does an amazing job at amplifying not much light and making sure you are visible to cars. Multiple brands have settled on 40-50 lumens as the right brightness for night flash modes and I've also found that feels about right. There are also options for far brighter lights and while I wouldn't dissuade anyone from going brighter, I've not found it to be necessary for visibility.

In total, of the 606 products, 188 products cost more than Moon MX GPS Mount Front Light and 406 cost less. Moon Lights If you are instead looking for a front light to see where you are going, the number has to be a lot higher. My riding tends to be in the 32-37 kph range at night and for me to feel safe at those speeds, I find I need at least 800 lumens. If I go under that number, I find it hard to process the information I'm getting from the road surface at speed and I start to slow down. I find that to be true even on well-lit city streets but the need does drop if my speed drops. If you ride slower, it's likely you can make it work with less power but my advice is 800 lumens if you need to see where you are going. How long should a light last? The first thing to consider is if you need a light to make yourself visible or to see where you are going. If you are only riding in the city, on well-lit streets, you'll already be able to see where you are going, so the light you need is going to be a lot less expensive and the specs are far less important.

The mount has to be secure enough that it doesn't bounce. You need a bright enough light that you can see details in the road at the speed you will be moving.

Take a look at the specs above and you should be able to see the material. It’s then up to you to decide if it meets your expectation. VARIABLE LUMEN SYSTEM (VLS): This is a feature Moon Sport has incorporated into most of their lights and allows you to adjust the output of each mode independently. Once activated, the light ramps up from minimum to maximum power for that mode (note it flashes at each extreme to indicate a max/min has been reached) slowly until you select the desired level. The chosen output value overrides the factory defaults allowing for full customization. Although it’s a cool feature to see, the factory defaults will likely be sufficient for most riders. The first thing to think about is what you are planning to do. You need a light that will go the distance but there are different considerations for commuting vs adventuring. If you are commuting then you need a light to last for your commute but you might want to cover more than one trip. Sure, you could charge between the morning and evening ride but are you going to want to deal with that? What about charging every night, is that something you want to think about? Even if your commute is short, you might want to get a set of lights that has enough battery for more than one day. It's relatively easy with a light to be seen but if you need to see you are going to need to really study the specs. Variable Lumen System (VLS) means that the output can be infinitely adjusted so that the runtime can be matched to the ride Quality is without doubt one of the most important factors that we consider when buying bikes, parts, accessories or clothing.
