Compare output with runtime
Planet Bike publishes the following FL1-tested specifications. These are manufacturer results, not measurements by 1WAYCAMPING.
| Light and mode | Published output | Published runtime |
|---|---|---|
| Beamer High | 700 lm | 2.5 hours |
| Beamer Medium | 350 lm | 4.5 hours |
| Beamer Low | 200 lm | 8.5 hours |
| Beamer Courtesy | 630 lm | 8 hours |
| Beamer Superflash Day | 700 lm | 15 hours |
| Rojo Steady | 25 lm | 5 hours |
| Rojo Pulse | 50–90 lm | 10 hours |
| Rojo Courtesy | 30–90 lm | 12 hours |
| Rojo Superflash Turbo | 100 lm | Up to 15 hours |
A maximum runtime figure needs a mode attached to it. The front light’s high steady setting has a different published runtime from its flashing setting. Plan around the mode you intend to use, with a margin for your conditions and battery state.
Evaluate the headlight on your route
A lumen figure alone does not show how the road will look from the saddle. Beam distribution, aiming, riding speed, surface conditions, and ambient lighting all matter. We have not assessed stopping-distance illumination for this set.
Try the headlight on a familiar route before a remote night ride. Check that you can identify road edges, turns, and obstacles with enough time to respond. Aim the beam responsibly and assess whether your route calls for different or additional lighting.
For bicycle camping, consider early departures and late arrivals when planning each day. Do not build a schedule around the assumption that one charge covers every setting for the entire trip.
Mount the lights with your luggage loaded
The Planet Bike Beamer 700 and Rojo 100 set should be evaluated on the bicycle you actually plan to ride. A handlebar bag may obstruct the front beam, while a saddle bag or rack load may hide the rear light.
- Check handlebar diameter and the mounting instructions.
- Install the lights with your full touring load in place.
- Check the front beam and rear line of sight.
- Confirm that mounts hold securely without interfering with cables or controls.
- Recheck after a short ride over representative surfaces.
Mount compatibility does not guarantee that every luggage arrangement leaves the lights visible. Review placement when adding panniers, changing bags, or shifting the load.
Charging at camp
Bring the correct cables and a compatible power source for multi-day travel. Account for both lights in your charging routine. Test the power source before departure, especially if you plan to recharge several devices from one battery pack.
Follow the supplied charging directions. Keep ports clean and dry, and inspect cables for damage. Water-resistance ratings do not establish safe charging while wet or permission to submerge the lights.

Consider this set if its published mode choices, mounting options, and charging routine fit your riding plans. Compare current price and package contents, then test the lights on your loaded bicycle. Assess local lighting requirements separately and keep suitable reflectors in your setup.
