NiteRider Lumina Flare 650 - $170 light with integrated tail light making it ideal for helmet mounted commuting NiteRider Lumina 550 - $110 light with 558 Lumens NiteRider Lumina Micro 220 - $70 micro light with 240 measured Lumens They actually put some thought and engineering in the other versions. And it's not just a bunch of weaker versions of the light in the same case. The real story here is the Lumina family of lights has expanded for more options. This protects it from moisture and dirt much better. The USB charging port is now moved to the bottom of the light with a better seal. This ensures a proper hold on the bar for those high-speed, rocky descents. ![]() Mounting is improved with a clamp now that is tightened with a hand lever. Claimed run times are the same at 1:30, but the weights leave us to believe the battery is the same and the 550 should run a little longer than the 700. The Lumina 550 shares the chassis with the Lumina 700, so size and weights are identical. ![]() They could have kept the battery the same as the next lines in the range to get a run time closer to 2 hours, but they opted to drive the price down to $110, which is a good choice in this very price sensitive market. Measured output is at 558 Lumens and run time on high is at 1:30. This expands the Lumina 650 options, as the 550 offers an impressive light at $110. So now comes the the Lumina 700 and the Lumina 550. Then came the Lumina 650 and it was light years better as it was polished and honest at 647 measured Lumens. First came the NiteRider Minewt 600 which was just 'ok' as it was rough and wasn't close to its 600 Lumen claims.
