Eurobike 2015: Lupine

August 28, 2015

Lupine are showing a whole new range of lights, with remotes and (not pictured) a responsive looking app for controlling lights, looking at runtime, power remianing, etc. Details below.

P1040003
The Neo 4 is the smallest of the range, with a 50g lamp head and a 120g battery.
P1030970
It doesn’t have a Bluetooth remote…
P1030972
… but it is a tiny light for your noggin if weight up there bothers you. 700 lumens.

 

P1030982
The Piko R 4 SmartCore is next up the range, and the smallest with Bluetooth.
P1030986
1500 Lumens.
P1030999
This lamp head is 55g, the battery another 120.

All except the smallest had these nifty bluetooth remotes.

P1030978
These were working at the show. There was no lag, and despite a whole bunch of lights and remotes being around, seemed to work without any crosstalk too.

 

P1030975
The Wilma R 7 is getting into seriously bright territory now, with 3200 lumens.
P1030977
With brightness comes the beef, with a 120g lamp head and a 240g battery. Still not particularly heavy though.
P1040002
All of the lights in the range are waterproof to two metres.

 

P1030987
Finally, the Betty R 7 is the biggest of the bunch, with seven LEDs and a 5000 lumen output.
P1030994
150g lamp paired with the 240g battery.
P1030996
That bluetooth remote again. It appears lit up when your lights are on, but because of the high MHz duty cycle of LEDs, I had to take loads of photos before I caught this.

David started mountain biking in the 90’s, by which he means “Ineptly jumping a Saracen Kili Racer off anything available in a nearby industrial estate”. After growing up and living in some extremely flat places, David moved to Yorkshire specifically for the mountain biking. This felt like a horrible mistake at first, because the hills are so steep, but you get used to them pretty quickly. Previously, David trifled with road and BMX, but mountain bikes always won. He’s most at peace battering down a rough trail, quietly fixing everything that does to a bike, or trying to figure out if that one click of compression damping has made things marginally better or worse. The inept jumping continues to this day.
