Moon X Power 700 front light – in brief review

The Moon is made of aluminium (!) and its tough, hinged mount has a quick-release lever on the left, so don’t mount it against the right of your stem. It has a secure fit and the button on the top is well made, with a positive click that unleashes incredible power.

Overdrive mode emits the full 700 lumens, meaning even peripheral light easily illuminates a country lane and verges, with a central beam that can comfortably light 15m ahead. It also has small side visibility windows, three more steady and three flashing modes, and a helmet mount. Simple operation and interchangeable batteries make it a versatile choice.
