The Radiant Charge lighting system for bicycles is aimed first at everyday users and commuters. It offers the user various innovative functions. These are accompanied by a simple and robust design. The set consists of a front and rear light as well as a control element on the handlebar fork. The individual elements are fastened using a non-slip and durable tape using the cable tie principle.

The functions of the front and rear lights are similar. These include, among other things, the side visibility of the bike through long LED strips, magnetic connection of the lamp parts and USB-C charging. When both lamp parts are magnetically plugged together, they charge each other to the same battery level. This combination can also serve as a power bank through one of the USB ports.
The front light has low beam and high beam, while the rear light has a bright brake light. The control element is linked to the lights via Bluetooth.
