The Swift 450 is a compact, powerful LED light with an internal USB rechargeable battery. At only 82 grams, it is also light despite the 5 lighting modes and integrated rubber mount system. Clearly there is a lot to like about the Swift 450, but have you seen the price? An MSRP of 34.99? If you had been buying a 450 Lumen light in 2010 it would have cost you four times as much. Technology and production for the win!

There is nothing tricky about the Swift. Charge it, mount it and go. The rubber strap mount will fit any bar diameter up to 32mm, and quick release tab make pulling the Swift off when you lock up your bike is a breeze. Charging the battery vis USB at 1A takes only 2 hours, and at 500mA it is just 3.25 hours. The composite fiberglass reinforced casing is durable and the light is water resistant to rain and splashing with an IP64 rating. Your five run modes include three steady modes, High, Medium, and Low. A Daylight Flash mode runs for 9.5 hrs, and Walking mode projects 20Lm for 25 hrs.

The Swift 450 really lets you control your lighting needs and battery usage, making it ideal for commuters or roadies who always want to have a capable light on hand for off season or dark hours riding. At only 82 grams, the weight is negligible and the peace of mind considerable. The power/mode button is also fuel gauge-low battery indicator. We requested it take out the trash too, but for under $35, that would be a bit too much to ask. No worries, the USB cable is included!
