According to the product specialist
Pros
| The Varia RVR315 Rearview Radar alerts you to traffic behind you from a distance of 140 meters. |
| Because the RVR315 is equipped with ANT+ and Bluetooth, it is possible to connect the Rearview Radar with your Edge bike computer, Garmin smartwatch, smartphone and even some other bike computers. |
| Thanks to a new attachment, it also fits on D-shaped, aero and round seat posts. |
| Unlike the RTL515, the RVR315 does not have a rear light. This makes the unit a lot smaller. |
| With a maximum output of 12 lumens, the BBB Cycling Spirit rear bike light is perfect for everyday use on your city bike. |
| With 9 modes to choose from, this light is very versatile. |
| The light has a strap mount for quick and easy attaching to almost any bike. |
| When the battery is low, Runtime Safety mode is activated, extending runtime with two extra hours in flash mode. |
Cons
| The Varia RVR315 Rearview Radar only works with a few types of cycle computers from other brands. |
| The battery life of 7 hours is on the short side when you can't recharge on the road during multiple day trips. |
| With a maximum output of 12 lumens, this taillight does not provide enough visibility in the darkest conditions. |
