Magicshine RN 3000
BikeRide finds and shows you the best prices of the bikes you want to buy. Prices constantly change and it’s impossible to compare them all yourself.
We search for prices on over 120 bike retailers to guarantee that we find the lowest prices – to save you time and money.
It’s a promise we stand behind: If you find a lower price on a bike elsewhere, we will sell it to you for 10% less. For example, if you find a bike for $480 that we have listed at $500, we will offer you to buy it for $432 through BikeRide. The bike must be the same color and size, sold in the US and not include the use of a coupon.
If you find a lower price, email us at [email protected] with documentation of the price. We’re committed to making sure that the cost of a bike does not keep you from cycling!
Facts
Summary of Reviews
We have read all expert and user reviews on the Magicshine RN 3000. In summary, this is what cyclists think.
7 reasons to buy
- The “solid” RN 3000 has a heat-dissipating alloy body, and it meets the ANSI FL1 standard.
- Experts confirm the RN 3000's beam spread and brightness are sufficient for night riding on moderately technical MTB trails.
- The RN 3000 has above-average battery life without the need for a separate battery pack.
- It is possible to use this light while it’s charging.
- Magicshine provides a Garmin mount with four straps of different lengths. Testers say it stays secure on rough terrain.
- The RN 3000 works as a power bank to charge other devices.
- The light has a lock mode to prevent it from turning on accidentally.
5 reasons not to buy
- Cycling through light modes frustrates testers who complain that two single presses can be sensed as a double press.
- The Garmin mount has limited adjustability. While it can be moved horizontally, the light itself is fixed, which may be problematic for curved handlebars.
- Owners complain of faulty batteries that won’t hold charge, but warranty claims are painless.
- If the light is installed on an upside-down Garmin mount, the anti-glare lens is useless.
- There is no way to determine battery life until charge drops below 30%.
Bottom line
Magicshine’s RN 3000 is a 3,000-lumen front bike light with a 10,000mAh battery. Without an app, users must toggle through light modes manually. Experts and owners praise the long battery life, secure and versatile mounting, brightness, and solid build. The main drawback is the annoyance of toggling through the 16 light modes. Other complaints include the lack of lateral adjustment and proper battery life indicator. Some owners experience battery problems, too. Overall, the RN 3000 is a powerful and long-lasting light with a very competitive price, but it’s best suited to off-road riding.Expert Reviews
