According to the product specialist
Pros
The Ion Elite R headlight has a powerful 1000 lumen beam that illuminates every road or trail across its full width. |
The lighting set is multifunctional; from unlit bike path to city use, from road bike to city bike. |
The light intensity, light pattern and range of both the headlight and rear light are also designed for ultimate daytime visibility. |
The Ion Pro RT headlight has enough power to illuminate your every road or path. |
With the Flare RT rear light you are visible at the brightest position up to a distance of 2 kilometres. |
Both lights are equipped with ANT+. This allows you to easily connect the lamps to your other Garmin and Bontrager devices with ANT+. |
With the waterproof USB ports, you also don't have to worry when cycling in wet weather. |
The light output of 1000 lumens (Lite Drive 1000XL) and 150 lumens (Strip Drive) makes the set multi-applicable for use in a dark rural environment or as daytime running lights. |
The "Wide Angle Optics" lens provides 270° visibility. The light can also be seen on the side of the lamp, making you more visible to traffic around you. |
The Lite Drive 1000XL headlight is made of aluminum, resulting in a strong but lightweight headlight. |
Easy to mount on almost all frames and handlebars with the silicone strap. |
Cons
A Bontrager BLENDR helmet mount for the headlight is not standardly included. |
The headlight does not come with any clothing or backpack attachment. |
A helmet mount for the Lite Drive 1000XL headlight is not included but can be ordered separately. |
