A Spectrum Of Lights: A Riding Gravel Round-Up – Part 2
Thank you for joining me for Part 2 of this Round-Up. Hit that link above if you need to read Part 1 yet. Now then, let’s get back to the lights at hand. I am just doing a quick overview for now. When I look at these one at a time I will fill in more details.
A Spectrum Of Lights: A Riding Gravel Round-Up
It’s almost Fall. Of course in So Cal that does not mean much except that the days get shorter and it is not 105 degrees. No leaves will fall as they have all died of drought and have already fallen or they have burned up in some forest fire.
Ravemen Lights: Quick Review Part 3
As I wrap up our look at Ravemen lights, I have a go with some of the more budget oriented lights in Ravemen’s range.
Ravemen Lights: Quick Review Part 2
The PR800 is a great light with features that make it a bit more versatile and useful for the long distance cyclist.
Raveman Lights: Getting Rolling
The Ravemen range of front and rear lights is intriguing and some of the models have some pretty unique features promising some nice user experiences.

The Recon HL 1600 is in a hotly contested category in the bike lighting market place. New contenders are out there with similar, and sometimes better, feature sets.

While it has a basic feature set, (unless you own the proprietary Giant computer which opens up more features), it holds its own at the asking price of $126.00USD.

Giant Bicycles Recon HL 1600 Light: Getting Rolling
The Recon HL 1600 is at the top of the heap in the range of Recon lights that Giant Bicycles offers. It is a “self-contained” light, in that the battery and emitter are all in one enclosure. Like many lights in this category, the internal battery is recharged via a USB cord.
