Product Information
Full details
The Ravemen TR250 is a high-visibility cycling tail light designed for cyclists seeking enhanced safety, especially in urban environments or during low-light conditions. Its key benefit is the combination of superior side illumination and smart brake detection, alerting drivers to your presence and actions more effectively.

FAQs
What is the battery life of the Ravemen TR250?
While specific runtimes for each mode are not detailed, the light is designed for extended use and features a clear battery indicator. For precise usage times, refer to the product manual or manufacturer's specifications.
Is the Ravemen TR250 waterproof?
Yes, the TR250 has an IPX6 water-resistance rating, meaning it can withstand heavy rain and splashes, making it suitable for all-weather cycling.
How do I know when to charge the light?
The light features a smart battery indicator: Green means >40% battery, Red means 5-40% battery, and Blinking Red indicates a low battery that needs charging soon.
Can this light be mounted on an aero seat post?
The light is compatible with round seat posts. It may fit some aero seat posts, but compatibility is not guaranteed for all designs due to the flexible O-ring mounting system.
What is the maximum visibility distance?
The TR250 provides visibility from up to 800 meters away with its 270° wide-angle beam.
Does the brake detection work in all modes?
The brake detection is an integrated feature designed to activate when the light detects deceleration, generally working across its primary visibility modes.
How do I charge the Ravemen TR250?
The light uses a hidden USB-C charging port. Simply connect a standard USB-C cable to the port and a suitable power source.
Troubleshooting
Light not turning on.
Ensure the light is charged. Press and hold the power button for a few seconds to turn it on. Check if the battery indicator shows low battery (blinking red) and charge if necessary.
Brake detection not working.
Ensure the light is mounted securely and oriented correctly. The internal motion sensor needs to detect deceleration. Try turning the light off and on again. Check for any obstructions that might affect the sensor.
Light not charging.
Ensure the USB-C cable is properly connected to both the light and the power source. Try a different USB-C cable or power adapter. Make sure the charging port is clean and free of debris.
Auto on-off function not engaging.
The auto on-off function requires a period of inactivity (2 minutes) to disengage and motion detection to re-engage. Ensure the light has been stationary for the required time. Clean the light if dirt is interfering with motion detection.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: The TR250 comes with a tool-free, flexible rubber mounting O-ring. This makes it easy to attach and detach from your seat post.

- Loop the O-ring around the seat post.
- Hook the O-ring onto the mounting bracket of the TR250.
- Secure the light firmly to the bracket.
Compatibility: This light is designed to be compatible with standard round seat posts. While it may fit some aero seat posts, compatibility is not guaranteed for all shapes and sizes due to the nature of the O-ring mount.
Care:
- Cleaning: Wipe the light with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners. Ensure the USB-C port cover is closed before cleaning.
- Charging: Use the provided USB-C cable to charge the light. A full charge typically takes a few hours. The battery indicator will show the charging status.
