>>1957883>I thinkexactly. You don't actually know, because you don't ride and you get all of your information from promotional videos on you tube.
I actually regularly ride on unlit rural spaghetti roads. For this I find 200 lumens is more than enough, to see and be seen, and I sometimes wish my light had a 100 lumen setting so I could get more battery life out of it. It is actually capable of 800, but I only use that in fog and it is just impossibly bright.
I also recently borrowed an e bike that had crappy dim STVZO lights. on the same unlit roads. That was actually enough light, believe it or not.
>but I *need* the 6000 lumen chinesium floodlight otherwise I can't see!!!!11no you just have night blindness from staring at your phone and not eating enough vegetables.
