Knog Blinder Arc 1.7
$65, Knog.com.au
This small light—the length of a tube of Chapstick and 3.5 ounces—is surprisingly powerful (hence the name “Blinder”), with up to 170 lumens beamed in a wide, elliptical shape to light up the road ahead of you. The silicone strap attaches it simply to handlebars, and it has four modes, including flashing. The light is also waterproof and rechargeable via USB.
