The Blinder Lights family just got better with advanced technology & more competitive price per lumen

World-renowned cycling and outdoor accessory brand Knog is thrilled to announce the expansion of its best-selling Blinder Light collection. Combining robust aluminum CNC construction, compact design, optimized beam angles, powerful light output, multiple mounting options, and more competitive price per lumen, the all-new Blinder Integrated front light range is designed to raise the bar by which all serious commuter and road cyclists bike lights are measured.

Growing the family of Knog’s Blinder lights, which includes top-rated lights like the Blinder V Rear Light and Blinder Road Front Light, the new Blinder Integrated range brings riders the best possible front lights for the best possible price. Available in 600 lumens, 900 lumens, and 1300 lumens, the newest Blinder lights are constructed from a single piece of industrial-grade aluminum using CNC machining that is anodized for an unparalleled durable finish. This method creates an unbelievably strong light that is also lightweight and impervious to corrosion from the elements. Equipped with features like dual-function side body vents and chassis cooling fins, the new Blinder 600, 900, and 1300 provide dual mounting options, enhanced side visibility, and self-regulated battery temperature, which helps prevent the unit head from overheating.

Giving riders the high-powered, road-focused beam they need, the new Blinder 600, 900, and 1300 combine two wide beam optics with two narrow beam optics. This combination creates the perfect blend of light, covering both distance and span. An intelligent, easy-to-operate silicone button also allows the rider to effortlessly select one of the six available modes: steady high, steady medium, steady low, pulse flash, strobe flash, and eco flash. Riders will never be left guessing when their light requires a full recharge–the new Blinder lights are designed with a convenient LED that lights up red when the battery dips below 10% remaining charge.

The button also features an LED ring that glows green while the light is charging and turns off automatically when the light has achieved full charge capacity. Like all Knog products, there is no need to worry about wasteful, single-use batteries. Blinder 600, 900, and 1300 all feature an advanced Lipo USB-C rechargeable battery that provides outstanding performance and an average run time of 2.5 hours on its highest setting and a staggering 125 hours on the Eco-Flash mode.

Retailing for $59.95 (Blinder 600), $79.95 (Blinder 900), and $99.95 (Blinder 1300), the new Blinder Integrated Front Lights will be available this spring.

Striking Functional Design:  The new Blinder’s manufacture is a first for Knog as it is a CNC machined single piece 6061 aluminum housing. Constructing the light using this method makes for an unbelievably strong product that is both lightweight and impervious to corrosion. Functional design elements include:

  • CNC machined chassis cooling fins, which help regulate the heat generated by the powerful light.
  • Unrivaled exposed silicone battery protective sleeve that reduces weight and provides unlimited branding and customization options.
  • Adjustable fore/aft and inverted mounting position along the light body allows for custom positioning on the mount.

Intelligent Silicone Button: LED illuminated silicone button that indicates a flashing charge status and real-time battery level (red, orange, green) indicator whilst the light is in use. The button also features a single-click battery level check when the light is turned off.

USB C Rechargeable: As with all Knog products, there is no need to worry about single-use batteries. Blinder features an advanced Lipo rechargeable battery that provides outstanding runtime performance and fast charging via USB-C.

High-Powered Road-Focused Beam: The Blinder 600 & 900 has two wide beam optics and two narrow beams, while 1300 has three wide beam optics and three narrow beam optics and, in combination, projects a beam pattern that allows quality illumination up to 100m and at an angle of 22˚.

100% Waterproof: With an IP67 rating, Blinder’s can be summered in 1 meter of water for 30 minutes and still come out shining

Unbodied CNC Construction: The new Blinder’s manufacture is a CNC machined single piece 6061 aluminum housing. Using this light construction makes for a reliable and robust product that is also lightweight and impervious to corrosion. A final level of protection is achieved by anodizing the aluminum body resulting in an unparalleled durable finish that reinforces its natural ability to withstand the elements and that cannot flake, peel, or blister
