Brighten Your Ride With Highly Visible Technology
As the days grow shorter and night grows longer, you need a reliable bike light that can help you on that daily commute without suffering through the darkness. No more struggling with dim lights or ones that go through batteries like no other, embrace the power of a high-tech light that is sure to keep you riding night after night. The Knog Plug is a front light that harkens back to Knog's roots, using an over-molded soft-touch TPU in four fun colors.
Kicking out 250 lumens, this light is packed with fresh technology that is sure to keep you on the bike and hungry for more. Given the fact that 78% of accidents occur when cars don't notice cyclists at intersections, added cutouts in the side of the Plug design result in improved side visibility. A large, soft-touch button ensures easy on and off power, even when wearing gloves. Don't be caught out with an uncharged bike light again. With this clever side visibility window doubling as a low battery indicator, you'll know exactly when to plug your Plug into a micro-USB cable — the same one most people charge their phone with.
Designed to work with all genres of bicycles from commuters to road bikes, the Knog Plug Front Light comes with two silicone bands for securing it to handlebars. When it comes to bike rides in less-than-optimal lighting, you know who to turn to. The Knog Plug is a light for every-day, for every ride, for everybody.

Reviews
Light has ample brightness and battery capacity for hobby cyclists. Various modes are helpful for seeing and being seen. Only complaint is that it tends to shift over bumpy terrain but needing to adjust it every so often is a minor inconvenience.
This a good light for getting noticed on the road. It has several flash rates. It's good for about 6 hours of flashing on a charge. I can't vouch for nighttime road visibility or battery life when on constantly. The rubber O-ring that holds it to your bike has no tab to aid installation and removal, so if you're taking it on and off frequently it's a little annoying.
I decided to add a front light for riding, not to see but to be seen. The Knog Plug front light is light, very bright, quick to mount and dismount, and has a micro USB port for recharging. Of course, it has a variety of modes - I use one of the flasher modes which is very effective and has the longest battery life (though I have yet to run out of juice even on multi-hour rides).
One minor reservation is the silicon loop used to secure the light. While it is quick and effective, the light can move a bit when going over rough pavement
Got this as a gift for my aunt and she loves it! Told me the light is pretty bright and is great when she is riding during the late evening hours! I also like how Knog comes with two bands one for thicker handlebars and another band for thinner handlebars. It fits a 25.4mm handlebar with no issue. I think it can even fit my 30.4 mm MTB handlebar too but haven't tried.
I enjoy using this light. It provides adequate and I can usually get 8-10 hours per charge.
I do have a complaint: I was riding in a cycling event. It was a damp morning to start out. I had to ride through a steady rain that last 45- 60 minutes. Even after trying to charge the light, the light would not work. I liked the light enough that I will try another one.
