I&#8217;ve been needing a head light of my own if I want to do any riding after work and this one should work pretty well. It&#8217;s a lithium ion battery powered helmet or bar mount 486 lumen LED-driven bike light, and based on my initial tests it&#8217;ll work very, very well. The on\/off switch is on the battery itself, which would normally be a hassle, except that this version comes with <a href=\"https:\/\/nuxx.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/IMG_2561-scaled.jpg\">a keyfob-like remote control switch and hardware for mounting it on the bike<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>I plan on posting beam shots comparing it with some other lights I have around the house later on, but for now if you&#8217;d like to see photos of the bundle as I received it, please feel free to take a look at my NiteRider TriNewt Wireless photo album <em>(photo gallery retired)<\/em>.
