Price-advantaged set of Fenix BC26R cycle light and Fenix BC05R V2.0 rear light.

Powerful rechargeable cycle light Fenix BC26R delivers a light output of up to 1600 lumens (ANSI) with a beam distance of up to 169 metres. Power comes from a replaceable Li-ion 21700 rechargeable battery with a capacity of 5000 mAh, which is included in the packaging and charges via a USB-C connector directly in the light. The light source is a modern Luminus SST-40 LED. Specially designed optics create a very wide light cone that smoothly illuminates the entire space in front of the bicycle at a 100° angle, so it lights areas that standard cycle lights do not cover. The mount design allows quick attachment and detachment of the light to the handlebars without tools, and the mount also allows quick removal of the light, so it can be used as a high-powered hand torch. The mount is compatible with all handlebars with a diameter of 22 to 32 millimetres. The Fenix BC26R offers five digitally controlled power modes with a runtime of up to 65 hours and includes a flashing mode. Fenix cycle lights will provide quality lighting for night training, regular commuting to work and endurance races.

All light parameters (light output, battery runtime, water resistance and beam distance) are measured in accordance with the ANSI/NEMA FL 1-2009 standard.

Using the bicycle light

The light may come with an insulating cover on the rechargeable battery inside. Remove it from the rechargeable battery before first use.

To turn on or off, hold the side button for approximately 0.5 seconds. The light will always turn on in the last used mode (except flashing), and you can switch between further power levels at any time during operation by pressing the button. To switch to flashing mode, press the button twice quickly.

Battery capacity indicator (applies only when powered by a 21700 Li-ion rechargeable battery) – with the light off, press the button once briefly, then the indicator LED in the button will light up for three seconds. Green light or flashing indicates a battery charged to more than 50%, red light or flashing indicates 50% or less. The indicator LED also lights when the light is on, so the user is continuously informed of the rechargeable battery status during riding.

Low rechargeable battery warning – if the rechargeable battery capacity drops below a safe level, the light will automatically switch to lower power modes to ensure the longest possible runtime (you will then not be able to switch to higher modes). If the rechargeable battery is critically discharged, the button will start flashing red. In this case, we recommend charging the light as soon as possible to prevent the protective electronics built into the rechargeable batteries from shutting down and the light from going out.

Intelligent overheat protection – once the temperature exceeds 60 °C, the light will automatically gradually reduce power; once it cools below this threshold, the highest modes will be available again.

Charging

• Flip open the rubber cover of the USB-C connector on the bottom of the light and connect it to a computer, power bank, mains USB adapter or car USB adapter using the supplied USB cable.
• During charging, the button lights red; when fully charged, it lights green.
• Charging time is approximately 4 hours. The Li-ion rechargeable battery used does not suffer from memory effect, so you can charge the light at any time.
• During charging, the light can be used in an emergency, but only in the lowest 50 lumens mode.
• After charging and removing the power cable, do not forget to seal the USB-C connector cover.

Warning

• Do not disassemble sealed parts in the light head yourself, as this will void the warranty.
• If the protective rubber rings appear damaged after prolonged use, replace them. The rings should also be lubricated to prevent rubber erosion. By following these rules, the light will be properly protected against water.
• If the light is flashing, not switching to higher modes or not turning on, it may be due to one of the following reasons:
  • The rechargeable battery is almost discharged; charge it or replace it.
  • The contacts inside the light are dirty – clean them with a cotton bud soaked in alcohol.
  • The battery cap is loose; tighten it.
