2 reasons not to buy

It's difficult to determine how much charge is left as the battery indicator only shows low (red) or not low (green).

Bottom line

The Proviz Rigel is a 500-lumen front bike light with nine modes. The runtimes are long compared to similar-output lights, especially in this price range. The high beam is deemed sufficient for unlit roads at moderate speeds. This light is water-resistant. The sole expert tester says their light wobbles in the mount. This reviewer considers the Proviz Rigel a hidden gem, providing excellent performance at this price. What’s missing? A more sophisticated battery status indicator.

Review: Proviz LED360 Rigel Front Bike Light

Level 5 expert

If you’re after a light that’ll handle the commute but also allow you to venture out into the great unlit at night the Proviz is easy to recommend, even with its niggles. Fix those, and it’s more or less unbeatable at this price.
