Fenix BC25R – 600 Lumen Rechargeable Bike Light
The BC25R is a small bike light for commuting and city riding. A neutral white Cree XP-G3 LED (around 4400K) sits behind a glass lens and puts out up to 600 lumens with a 348 ft (106 m) beam. The beam has an anti-glare cut-off line, so the bright part lands on the road rather than in the eyes of drivers coming toward you.
Everything runs from one switch. Press and hold for half a second to turn it on or off, and single-click to step through four brightness levels and flash. The 2600mAh battery is built in and gives up to 36 hours, with battery level indication and a low-voltage warning. Metal fins on the body help shed heat, and the light comes off its quick-release mount to use as a flashlight.
One thing to know before you order: the BC25R charges through a micro-USB port, not USB-C. Fenix includes the charging cable along with the bike mount and thick and thin mounting shims. It weighs 5.5 oz with the mount and battery and is IP66 rated.
