Single test: Knog rear lightPhoto: Daniel Simon
It makes life safer and more comfortable for night riders: the Boomer USB rear light from Knog.

Safer, because the super-bright diode (50 lumens according to the manufacturer) burns real holes in the darkness. And more convenient because the battery is recharged via an integrated USB plug on the computer - it couldn't be easier. Four hours of continuous lighting should be enough for most trips, while the light can shine for up to 30 hours in flashing mode. The waterproof silicone housing fits perfectly on seatposts with a diameter of 27.2 millimetres; on thicker seatposts, the strap is relatively stretched. A position other than on the seat post is not recommended due to the angular orientation of the lens. Available in six colours, also as a battery version.

PLUS Convenient reloading; extremely bright
MINUS No test mark

Price 34.90 Euro (battery version 24.90 Euro)
Weight 42 grammes
