The Nitecore BR25 is a powerful bike light that can also double as a hand torch if required when removed from the mount. It utilises a Luminus SST40 LED to provide a maximum output of 1400 lumens, which combines with the uniquely designed reflector shape cuts the beam above the eye level which avoids blinding the pedestrians and oncoming drivers or riders.
The BR25 LED gives a long beam with 163 metres range and thanks to the clever design, the BR25 provides a short range beam so that all areas are covered. Under the hooded section of the torch there is a white diffusing reflection board that bounces the light back down to provide the short range beam just in front and eliminate the blind spot that is usually under the front wheel with traditional bike lights. A single power button provides easy operation, turning the light on by holding it down until the light turns on in the previously used brightness output. Once the light is on you can single press the button to cycle through low, mid, high and turbo.
The high quality universal mount is adjustable to fit a wide range of handlebars and offers a quick detach function. The BR25 is powered with the included Nitecore NL2150R 21700 5000 mAh 8 A USB-C lithium-ion rechargeable battery for best run-times due to the larger capacity, and is charged outside of the torch via the USB-C charging port on the battery itself using the included USB-C charging cable for fast charging. Тhe BR25 can also use an 18650 lithium-ion rechargeable battery (discharge current above 8 A), two RCR123A lithium-ion rechargeable batteries or two CR123A lithium metal non rechargeable batteries using the included battery adaptor that makes the batteries compatible, which provides great versatility. The integrated advance temperature regulation (ATR) technology regulates the output of the BR25 according to the working condition and ambient environment to maintain the optimal performance.
The Nitecore BR25 is an excellent bike light for road cycling, mountain biking, BMX, or just casual neighborhood rides.
