Review on NiteRider Lumina 900 Boost: Powerful USB Rechargeable Bike Light for All-Terrain & Road Riding - Enhanced Lumens, Water Resistant, Easy Installation for Optimal Cycling Safety by Narendra Thapa

Bait and Swap, DO NOT BUY

After a lot of research I settled on the NiteRider Lumina 900 and shopped for the best price. Revane referred me to this item which was $20 off at the time! Great, isn't it? nope It's not a Lumina 900, it's a Lumina 900 BOOST which has a much shorter runtime, but somehow the price is the same as the real Lumina 900? The NiteRider website doesn't even list the Boost version, so I have to conclude that they are capitalizing on the Lumina 900's popularity by selling this low-end product with almost the same name. I've been watching the NiteRider brand for 30 years now and was excited to finally be able to afford one of their lights. No longer. This cheap bait-and-switch tactic ruined their brand. I returned the Boost 900 and bought a 900 lumen Anker flashlight. Seems to work great and was a fraction of the price.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • Could have chosen a newer model
