Description
The Bryton Tail Light Radar Gardia R300 works with your Bryton bike computer and even bike computers from other brands. Because the Gardia R300 features both ANT+ and Bluetooth connectivity, you can also pair the Radar with your smartphone. The Bryton Gardia App will then provide notifications on your smartphone of incoming traffic.
Braking action
Using a built-in G-Sensor, the Bryton Gardia Radar taillight can detect when you are braking and alert vehicles behind you with a brake light, reducing the chance of collisions when slowing down or during emergency braking.
Automatic light intensity
The Gardia R300 is a smart taillight that ensures optimal visibility on the road, regardless of light conditions. When connected to a compatible bike computer or the Gardia app, it uses the computer's built-in light sensor to adjust the light mode. For example, the tail light switches to daytime flash when enough light is detected to conserve battery life. But when it gets darker, it automatically switches to the night flash setting to ensure that you are always clearly visible to other road users. Making the Gardia R300 a useful tool for any cyclist who values safety on the road.

Recommended especially for older cyclists.
No false negatives. From cyclists behind, it depends on speed, if difference speed is too low, no notification follows. Explained to older cyclists along the way that this is better than an SH sign on the back of the bike. After all, more electric cars, more often tyres that make less noise, more often low-noise asphalt, and as you get older your hearing deteriorates, this works better than a mirror.
Pros & Cons

Excellent Radarlight fair priced
Finally I got my hands on the Bryton Gardia R 300 Radarlight. The built quality seems to be good and so far I didn't notice any concerns about this with 500km testing. The functionality and set up via app or bike computer is fairly simple and done within 1-3 minutes. There must be said, that some parts of the appeal are not or if not well translated from Chinese (i guess). I mainly use the low light mode and love that it's only blinking when a car is about to approach. The radar is really reliable and I only noticed one false positive (a car shown but none approaching) once and no false negatives (a car not being recognized) which is way more important. Multiple cars are recognized smoothly and trucks will be shown as multiple cars together (2-3 depending on the trucks size). Loading with the provided cable is easy and doesn't take to long. I can just recommend this beauty. Just to be said with those radars it's the same like with electronic shifting - you don't really need them to enjoy a ride out, but once you used one you don't want to miss it.
Pros & Cons

Great device
I have now tested the device a few times and must write that I am very satisfied with it. The radar works really well and looks very good. Approaching vehicles were reported reliably. I have not had any vehicles that were reported incorrectly. Only one vehicle following closely behind a car with a box trailer was not reported by the device, but this could also have been due to the separated cycle path. I ran the app with the display in the mobile phone switched off and I received a non-annoying warning tone every time. Otherwise, you can recognise incoming vehicles graphically on the display. But the device also works without an app or bike computer. I like the "lights off, radar on" function, i.e. the radar only starts flashing when a vehicle is approaching. That saves battery life. After a two-hour drive, only a few percent of the battery capacity is used up. Apart from that, the radar has several light modes, including various flashing signals, dim light, and a light for the vehicle. Flashing signals, dim light, brake light, etc. After a while, my bike ride was very relaxed, the constant nervous attention to the traffic behind was almost gone, because vehicles are also detected very early (150 metres). You are then well prepared and not surprised, and can easily turn around and possibly make visual contact if a car passes you. I also tell myself that drivers will be more attentive when passing you because they might be warned by the short flashing signal. Only the app was a little bitchy at first when it came to device recognition, but I think this has been remedied by two software updates and one firmware update (within two weeks!). Conclusion: I don't know how I managed without radar on my road bike.
