There is a way is "grass long warbler flying February day, whisking willows drunk spring smoke". It is a spring scene, the sun is shining, and everything is revived. It's when spring is in full swing and full of life. Although the epidemic situation comes from time to time, it cannot stop the heart and impulse of riding freely outdoors, interspersed with grass, green flowers and red birdsong. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Mai Jixuan, a national brand focusing on outdoor sports lighting, has also changed its own explosive RN1500 into a spring suit, which is a rock-like calm iron gray, a quiet and deep peacock blue and a strong fiery red, and three different colors are sold in limited quantities. This is the protagonist of this article, RN1500 Colorful Edition, let's get a glimpse of it:
First, open the box: exquisite gift box, rich accessories
As the first "spring dress", the packaging is contrary to the previous black skin and orange bottom design, but adopts a simple gift box of "big white". In addition to the colorful LOGO, there is no information such as sealing and special selling points, and the design of this blank space is also full of expectations.
In stark contrast to the minimalist packaging is the abundance of contents. In addition to the host itself, there are USB-C port charging cables, hex wrenches, bases, straps, and adapters that can be connected to Gopro, basically everything you can think of is arranged for you.
Second, the appearance: makeup body, face value online
The one I started with is Gentetsu Gray, although it doesn't look too amazing, but it still looks a lot more beautiful compared to the ordinary version of DA900 around me.
More comparisons: the fuselage is rigorous and solid, and the integrated seamless shell highlights the metallic texture while having a good heat dissipation effect. Like the DA900, it is a custom light for the Yatenkawa-Zozo Extreme Challenge.
The only button at the top is also designed to be seamless with glue, and it also integrates a power indicator (green, red and red flashes represent sufficient, sufficient and urgent, respectively), which feels good and flexible.
Here's a side photo:
As an outdoor cycling light, it must face various weather environments, and the RN1500 colorful version of the fuselage waterproof rating has reached IPX7, which is enough to cope with rain and snow and other weather (soaking under 1 meter underwater for half an hour, the product performance is not affected).
Open the rear curtain rubber plug behind the fuselage, you can see the familiar Type-C charging port, mai ji xuan home lights mostly support reverse charging (support high current charging identification, charge and discharge faster), this is no exception. When going out, it is inevitable to encounter the situation of low battery of the mobile phone, and the extra multi-belt cord can "continue to live" for the mobile phone for a while, which is equivalent to the application of the charging treasure, which is very practical.
The specific size of RN1500 is 107 * 31 * 31mm, weighs 172 grams, built-in a 5000 mAh 21700 battery, the battery life is still very strong, low brightness can persist for 12 and a half hours. The grip is just the right size in the hand, and it can be directly attached to the pants pocket and pocket after riding.
Hold it in your hand, just right. Mai Ji Xuan has a wide variety of lamps, of which the two hot series, DA focuses on far and near dual lenses, while RN focuses on strong light night shooting. The current flagship model is the RN3000. As the mainstay, the RN1500 has achieved a good balance between performance and fuselage, which is enough to meet daily use.
Although the colorful version of the shell is still made of aluminum alloy, compared with the previous black that has remained unchanged and somewhat aesthetically tired, it is more attractive in appearance and makes people shine.
Close-up of the connection port: with the base, the combination of concave and convex, rotated 90 degrees to fix the tight can be. It is easy to pick up and install. The factory standard straps of different lengths can correspond to different thicknesses of handlebars.
The lens design of the cycling headlight is naturally very different from our common flashlight, in order to ensure the safety of night riding, not to affect the passing vehicles and pedestrians, its lens adopts an anti-glare design, which can refract the light, so that the original upward spot is offset downwards, so that passers-by / car will not be affected by high / high light and cause the line of sight to be obstructed. If you look closely at the radial prism inside, the actual light emitted is also very soft, and it will not form a strong light stimulation on the eyes.
As the name suggests, the RN1500 has a maximum luminous flux of up to 1500 lumens, and there is still residual light exposed on the side of the lens when irradiated, further improving safety. However, the lens is plastic, not tempered glass, so care should be taken to avoid scratching and scratching when using.
Third, experience: ride at night, travel safely
The fixing of the frame is also very simple, the lights of The ExtremeLy Dazzling use Jiaming's universal quick-disassembly base, which is very convenient to disassemble and install, and once it is locked with the attached hexagonal wrench, it is very firm, and the road will not worry about falling off when it is bumpy.
However, the viewing angle after locking is fixed, so it is best to adjust the angle when installing.
In terms of actual use, the flood light area of the headlights is very large, and its spot is not concentrated at one point, but evenly diffused, and its paving effect is excellent. In addition, its color temperature is medium white, non-cold and non-warm, looks very comfortable, and will not cause visual fatigue.
The Maxil RN1500 Brilliant Edition has three solid brightness files and two flashing modes to cope with each scene. Click to switch the brightness, double-click the switching mode, the operation logic is simple and direct, easy to use. 750 lumens when blinking, which is equivalent to a medium-light gear under constant light (300 lumens for low light). Here's a comparison of the gears:
On high brightness, the RN1500 can output for 1 hour and 40 minutes, and for medium brightness for 4 hours. The most commonly used brightness for night riding is mid-range, the paving effect of 750 lumens is good, the flood area is large enough to cover both sides of the road, and the field of view is relatively open. Suitable for riverfront parks, TD along embankment roads.
For particularly dark forest paths, you can open the highlight up to 1500 lumens, at this time the field of vision is not only more open, but also can be illuminated around and far away, can be done in the eyes of the light, in case of trouble. In addition, the light is also very soft when shooting at night, and the color reproduction of the illuminated object is also very good.
Summary: As a headlight, the Performance of the RN1500 Brilliant Edition is satisfactory. It is online, comfortable to hold, easy to carry, quick to install and disassemble, and the brightness of lighting is enough. In addition to cycling lights, it can also be used as a flashlight or a charging treasure in daily use, and it is highly recommended for individuals. In this spring season, spring riding is the best enjoyment, and the night ride is accompanied by RN1500 all the way, safe and secure. I personally recommend wall crack.
