Techalogic launches new front and rear bike lights with integrated cameras for £99.95 each

Techalogic's new CF-1 front and CR-1 rear lights with integrated 1080P cameras are competitively priced at £99.95 each or £179.90 for the pair

The British safety tech company Techalogic - makers of the DC-1 dual recording helmet camera that it claimed was a world first when it launch two years ago - has now launched both front and rear lights with integrated cameras. With full HD 1080P wide angle cameras, they attach to your bike with simple Go Pro-style mounts, and have a claimed four hours of battery life with the LED on and seven hours without.

The CF-1 has a 400 lumen beam, weighs 120g and has dimensions of 80mm x 47mm x 27mm. The mount is included, and it's a simple press of a button to start the recording. A wide angle 120 lens captures everything, and is capable of capturing licence plates with ease according to Techalogic.

The largest 128GB memory card can record up to 12 hours of footage, and as with most bits of cycling tech nowadays there's a companion app to alter settings. You can also download your footage and share on social media through the app. All recordings are date and time-stamped, and IPX5 water resistance with an airtight construction should ensure the elements don't mess up your footage.

The specs are largely the same at the rear, except for the light is 60 lumens, and you get six rear light settings as opposed to three on the front. You'll also get six hours of battery life out of the rear with the light in flash mode, and around seven hours with just the camera running.

Other features of note include the internal mic to record sound as well as video, and a photo mode that auto captures a photo every second. The 'G sensor option' also makes the camera recognise an impact, auto-locking the file so it can't be overwritten.

Arriving at road.cc in 2017 via 220 Triathlon Magazine, Jack dipped his toe in most jobs on the site and over at eBikeTips before being named the new editor of road.cc in 2020, much to his surprise. His cycling life began during his students days, when he cobbled together a few hundred quid off the back of a hard winter selling hats (long story) and bought his first road bike - a Trek 1.1 that was quickly relegated to winter steed, before it was sadly pinched a few years later. Creatively replacing it with a Trek 1.2, Jack mostly rides this bike around local cycle paths nowadays, but when he wants to get the racer out and be competitive his preferred events are time trials, sportives, triathlons and pogo sticking - the latter being another long story.
