The AMPP range has rolled in as a more all-around option with bigger side windows that make for a much broader beam and better side recognition.

Our only gripe is that there is very limited low battery communication, but considering the price and battery life on offer, we still think this is a great light.įor more details, check out our full Magicshine RN3000 review.Ĭateye has been pushing bike light performance since it introduced the first Stadium Metal Halide lamp in the early 90s, but its latest light twin set is all about practicality. We opted to set it in the middle power setting which still pushes plenty of lumens for nighttime riding without needing to worry about battery life. The bright, broad beam output is enough to ride without compromise even in complex situations. Run times are decent as well, and we found the RN3000 can pump out the 3,000 max lumen output for around 2 hours 19 minutes. USB-C charges the device as well as functioning as a power bank if you can spare some juice from the 10,000 mAh battery. It's packed with neat features too – the IPX6 waterproof rating keeps the rain out, while opting for a neat quarter-turn mount makes things simple and secure. Things like the full metal body, side ribs and laser-etched logos mean the RN3000 feels far more premium than it actually is. Magicshine makes some of the best budget mountain bike lights, it's not just a high lumen output for a low cash input that makes them shine either.
