Cateye Rapid 3 Front Light
The Rapid 3 front light will get you noticed on the roads. Being the brother to the hugely popular Rapid 3 rear light, it uses the same single high powered 0.2W LED. On either side are two high powered LED’s which give additional light. Cateye’s Opticube Lens technology is able to make full use of the LED’s brightness.
Coming in a compact shell the Cateye Rapid 3 has excellent side visibility and three light modes - flash, rapid and constant. On flash you get up to 80 hours of burntime making it the most economical option when riding in the city.

Light measurement guide
CANDELA The actual amount of light output at the source, similar to volume of sound coming out of a speaker in all directions. One candela = the light intensity of a household candle.
LUMEN The amount of light (light density) that reaches you at a set distance (1 metre) and angle, similar to how loud the sound would appear to you a metre away from the source.
LUX The amount of reflected light from a surface. If you shone a torch at a dark wall, LUX is the light coverage you can see reflected on the surface.
WATT A measurement of power (electricity) rather than a light output. LEDs are measured differently to household, incandescent and florescent bulbs.
What do you NEED to look for?
All lights have a focused beam so it is difficult to compare Lumens and Candelas.
COMMUTING Get the brightest light your budget can afford, with the best features.
OFF ROAD LIGHT A unit with at least 1000 lumens is a good benchmark (500+ is ok but hard to see at faster speeds.
