  • New ultrabright Seoul LED, combined with highly efficient reflectors, delivers a nice, even light pattern void of rings or halos
  • Output is so bright you can use this tiny light for recreational trail riding and commuting
  • Light features an impressive power-to-weight ratio, too; total system weighs just over 6 oz.!
  • Run time is over 3 hrs., and with no batteries to replace or dispose, you can charge and go
  • Smart Charger built into the battery pack prevents overcharging
  • Handlebar mount fits up to 31.8mm

    Comments about NiteRider MiNewt Mini-USB LED Bike Light:

    This is a glorified AAA light.

    It's been out for 1.5 years and is already outdated.

    Cygo has a 150 lumen one piece Lithium Ion light out right now for the same price.

    I'd wait for NiteRider's next generation light.

    110 lumens is not enough!

    With 110 lumens, you can be seen but you cannot see!

      Comments about NiteRider MiNewt Mini-USB LED Bike Light:

      Works well for bike path. Beam is strong enough to see in front and a bit to the sides. Lights up obstructions. It is very light weight and the battery and light remove easily.

        Comments about NiteRider MiNewt Mini-USB LED Bike Light:

        This is a great light for commuting. It's bright and easy to recharge, I put it on a USB at work and it's charged by lunchtime. I've had oncoming traffic flick thier brights on to signal me to dim the light. All that for[$]? It's a great deal. Don't drop the battery though. It broke from a 3 feet drop onto concrete. Otherwise it'd be 5 stars.
