Description

Rando is designed for extended adventure perfect for dynamo setups, touring, commuting, and off-grid riding. Featuring all of the safety innovations of the Urban series, the high capacity lithium-ion battery has enough juice to power the light for a full 3 hours on high and a mighty 24 hours in daytime pulse mode! For those that find themselves on an extended adventure, Rando is the first high-visibility bike light that allows the light to trickle-charge while in use. Perfect for dynamo setups with a USB charger or an external battery pack, cyclists can now rely on powerful safety lighting even if conventional charging is unavailable. Reliable construction is a prime consideration for extended rides and Rando's waterproof lighting platform has a certified IP67 rating - meaning the light is certified to withstand water immersion up to a depth of 1 meter. Ride with the added assurance knowing rain or shine the light will keep performing. Whether competing in endurance racing, bike packing across the country, or commuting over 3 hours a day with no place to recharge - Rando is the ultimate long runtime lighting solution.

FAQ

Can the Rando charge while in use?

Yes, the output is reduced to 125 lumens in low or pulse mode in order to allow the light to charge.

Does the Rando provide extra runtime?

Yes, the Rando 500 offers double the runtime over standard 500-lumen commuter lights.

Can any Micro USB cord be used with Rando?

The Rando is packaged with a special high capacity Micro USB cord that allows it to charge while in use. Standard Micro USB cords will not properly charge Rando or allow the charge-in-use functionality. We have packaged a special Rando Specific cable with the light that is orange coated towards the ends so you do not get it mixed up with other Micro USB charge cables.

Great light for on-the-go charging.

I bought this light and had it mounted on my bike continuously for the last four years, at least. I have it hooked up to my dynamo hub and USB regulator. It's the only one I know of that lights up while a charger is connected and can intelligently manage the power and charge. In all this time I have never removed it or put in on a wall charger. Rain or shine, it just works.

Unfortunately, any battery powered thing will stop working at some point. I don't know if it's possible to change the battery on these things. Sadly, the same model is currently sold out. :-(

Superb Customer Service

Light and Motion customer service is top notch. I am a user of their Rando500 lumens bike light. I use it as a daytime running light and it’s never failed. The one issue I had was the difficulty opening the USB charging port cover., not to mention it was old and about to crack in half. I reached out to customer service and they offered to send me a new cover. The communication through email was very prompt and Grae, one of their reps, reached out to me several times to ensure everything was good and delivered! I can’t say enough about their products and customer support! I’m a customer for life.

A GOOD SOLID PERFORMER.

Have had this light for a year now. Generally used on my Tourer so I am not bombing along like the mext Sky Team Super Star. I have found this to be a good, solid and reliable light. I have always used the supplied orange cable to charge this light but, just for the hell of it, tried an energizer micro USB and it charges the same as with the supplied cable. I have and would recommend this light to anyone looking for a well made, reliable front light. The medium and low are both more than enough light for slow moving me on unlit roads and the given run times on those settings have been accurate. This light is also really well built, with the micro USB cover opening and closing with a reassuring “pop”. An all round great light.

I'd like to amend that review to Great.

After rummaging in our Drawer of Charging Cords, I found a newer Rando cable to go with our newer Rando light. (I'd been using the older Rando cord from our older Rando light.) Aside from the orange-ness of the plug, the cords look identical. But this newer one works fine with the newer light, which now fully charges and lights up when we ask it to.

The Light and Motion folks were responsive and groovy.

What a great light!

I first noticed the Rando 500 lights that my training partners had on their bikes while riding super early tempo efforts sometimes side-by-side with school busses and the like. I really liked the side amber lights which are very bright, as most manufacturers ignore the side angles. I loved the other features like being able to charge while the light is functioning for all-night adventures. Customer support has been phenomenal too, all around a great product, solidly built, and well supported! 10/10 would recommend.
