Product Information
Full details
The Knog Plus Front Bike Light is a versatile and super-bright USB-rechargeable light ideal for commuters, road cyclists, and runners seeking enhanced visibility. Its key benefit is its dual-mount system, allowing it to be attached to a bike or clipped onto clothing, offering maximum flexibility. A potential caveat is its 40-lumen output, which may be less powerful than some dedicated high-intensity bike lights, though it excels as a primary or secondary visibility aid. Key features include its 450-meter visibility range, efficient COB LEDs, integrated USB connector for easy charging, and a waterproof IP67 rating.

FAQs
How long does the battery last?
The run time varies by mode. In Eco-Flash mode, it lasts up to 40 hours. In Steady mode, it lasts approximately 2 hours. Eco-Flash mode is recommended for maximum battery life.
How do I know when the light is fully charged?
The red charging indicator ring around the button will turn off once the light is fully charged. It typically takes about 2 hours to charge completely.
Is this light suitable for off-road cycling at night?
While the Knog Plus is very bright for its size (40 lumens) and excellent for visibility, it may not provide sufficient illumination as a sole primary light for technical off-road trails. It is best suited for urban commuting, road cycling, or as a secondary visibility light.
Can I use this light while running?
Yes, the integrated clip allows you to easily attach the light to your clothing, such as a t-shirt, shorts, or backpack, making it a great wearable light for runners.
What is the IP rating?
The light has an IP67 rating, meaning it is dust-tight and protected against immersion in water up to 1 meter deep.
What is included in the pack?
The pack includes the Knog Plus Front Bike Light, a small strap (22-32mm), and a large strap (up to 200mm) for mounting.
Troubleshooting
Light not turning on
Ensure the battery is charged by plugging it into a USB-A port. Check if the low battery indicator is lit. Try pressing and holding the button for a few seconds.
Light not charging
Verify the USB-A port is functioning correctly. Clean the USB connector on the light and the USB port. Ensure the light is pushed fully into the port. Check if the charging indicator light appears.
Light flickering or inconsistent beam
This may indicate a low battery; charge the light fully. If the issue persists after charging, contact customer support.
Light falling off during use
Ensure the correct strap is used for your mounting location and that it is tightened securely. If using the clip, attach it to a thicker piece of fabric or a secure loop.
