Description
Our new light is here! We completely redesign a new light based on our philosophy that your light should simply always work.
The new Rydon uses a thick CNC milled aluminum metal housing that protect the light from impact.
Charging the battery is not necessary, the integrated solar panel automatically charged the battery. After 30 hours of direct sunlight the battery are fully charged. The light is permanently fixed on your bicycle with a stainless steel clamp so you can never forget it and the light can charge its battery when parked. If the Rydon never get the chance to charge in the sun then you can also charge the light with the USB. The light will indicate when it is time to charge your battery, you will still have about 5 hours of light, so enough to finish your ride.

The front light works very good. Without sun it is charging outside.

Very nice light. I got the red rear light. It’s bright, user friendly, easy to mount, looks nice.
Rydon was extremely helpful in assisting when mounting & whenevery I had questions. I now have a well secured rear light on the best position for my bike. Thank you, Hugo, for the great support!

Light is very OK, but it is not a concentred flashlight, no focus

What a light! In the city the half power light is already extremely light and with full light on you can cycle in even the darkest forest at night. Great! And it seems unbreakable too. Very handy to being able to charge it with my telephone charger, but after using it for over a year I had no need to charge it; it keeps going and going.

robust light, we put it on the mountain bike. my son likes that it is solar powered.
Peter –
Very satisfied with the Rydon light.
I could say that this is a perfect bike light if the front light light beam was focused.
Anyway the aluminum housing is very solid being virtually indestructible.
Looks to me that the solar panel mounted on Rydon it is made by Sunpower (Maxeon) which is one the most efficient solar panel on the market, above 22% efficiency. It will keep charging the battery even when the sky is partially clear.
Rydon light it is using a one piece 18650 LG Li Ion battery. It is the same battery size used in Tesla Model S. The battery it is also easy replaceable,so the life of the product can be prolonged indefinitely.
The electronics inside are coated to protect it from water and humidity. I found that the conformal coating it is on the gooey side, but I think that it will offer a decent protection against humidity and water for a couple of years of usage.
To a certain degree it is also an antitheft product because it is mounted with brackets and screws permanent on the bike.
I highly recommend the rear light.The Rydon front light it is visible but you might need to use it in conjunction with a light with a focused beam if you ride at night out of town.
Overall it is a simple and straightforward to use, longlasting, environmentally friendly product.
