Additional Information
The Explorer external features now boast a two colour anodised finish, improved internal thermal performance and waterproof sealing. The light features six easily selectable power modes including Flash and a special Smart Boost mode designed for 3-minute sprints, the Smart Boost delivers maximum performance at high speed. At customers request the Explorer now also indicates the state of battery charge when you first connect the light. Improvements in the LED driver software also increase the efficiency of the Explorer system enabling greater run times - especially if coupled with our new 3.4Ah or 6.8Ah battery packs. Working together this increases run times by up to 20% whilst still maintaining industry leading brightness. We have worked closely with CREE to identify a very special version of the XML2 LED used in the light - which has a high element of green/blue in its spectrum - whilst not obvious to your eye when riding (its just a crisp white light), but if you are riding through trees or foliage you will notice that the branches and leaves will become much more obvious. The Smart Indicator software has also been enhanced, providing light output mode and battery health indicators on the back of the lamp.
One of the beauties of the lamp is simple, rugged up/down toggle switch that allows the user to easily (even with heavy gloves) go up or down through the power modes without the need to cycle through unnecessary settings.

Our Lithium-Ion batteries packs are made using the very highest quality Panasonic/Sanyo cells. The battery pack is the heart of any bike light system and we have found using these cells results in battery packs that typically last between 5-7 years when used and stored correctly. Of course running two lights from a single battery does reduce the run times but for moderate length rides over extreme terrain these lights will out perform nearly everything on the market.
