The bike headlight designed to be mounted upside down - Moon Sport Rigel 700 USB-C Headlight Review

As out-front bike light and computer mounts increase in popularity, more and more people are mounting bike lights upside down. If your bike front light has an anti-glare or directional beam design, mounting the light upside down can actually increase glare and reduce the effectiveness of the beam. The Moon Sport Rigel 700 solves this issue with a reversible anti-glare lens that allows the light to be mounted in either direction safely while reducing glare. With 700 lumen verified output and a retail price of only $57.84, the Rigel 700 is a compact and bright commuter light. The headlight uses a dual LED design with a two-piece lens - a standard flat lens and a removable anti-glare lens that can be mounted in either direction. As with other Moon Sport lights, the Rigel 700 features USB-C charging and their Variable Lumen System (VLS) for full customization. Moon Sport has integrated a standard Garmin quarter turn mount to the base of the Rigel 700. Unlike lights with proprietary designs, this allows the headlight to be used with a variety of aftermarket mounts and accessories on the market. It’s a simple quarter turn mount with two tabs on each side that securely hold the light in place. Unlike the more expensive Rigel Power which comes with an out-front mount, the Rigel 700 only comes with a simple plastic and rubber handlebar mount. It’s a tool free design with a long rubber strap that looks identical to a watch band. Moon Sport added clever hinged hooks on the mount which allows the mount to work on flat aero bars or round handlebars without modification or optional mounts. Although the mount is well designed, we’d still highly recommend a dual-sided out front mount like the Topeak UTF mount to really take advantage of the streamlined upside-down mounting. The Rigel 700 features a compact dual LED design with rectangular metal housing and plastic extension that is shared with other Rigel headlights. The metal housing is gray with a metal flake that gives it an interesting appearance. The Moon Sport logo is printed on top with white reflective dots with Rigel printed below the power button. The interface of the Rigel 700 is a single rubber button with dual LEDs that indicate whether smart (green) or standard mode (blue) are active as well as a second LED below it with a 4-level battery indicator. On the sides of the light you’ll find a familiar reflective white zig-zag geometric pattern that is also on the Moon Sport U Headlight.... ...
