Magene L508 Radar Tail Light

The Magene L508 Radar Tail Light is an intelligent rear safety light that combines radar vehicle detection, adaptive lighting, and smart alerts to help you stay visible and aware on every ride. A 40° radar beam angle detects vehicles approaching from up to 140 metres behind, even around bends, while a powerful rear light with a 220° viewing angle remains visible from up to 1.2km. Smart brake detection, automatic warning flashes for approaching vehicles, and seven adaptable light modes provide reliable rear awareness across a wide range of riding conditions.Key Features and Benefits:Millimetre-wave radar detection with a 40° beam angle: The L508 uses millimetre-wave pulse radar with a wide 40° detection angle that can identify vehicles approaching from up to 140 metres behind, including on bends where direct line-of-sight visibility may be limited. This early vehicle detection gives you more awareness of traffic approaching from the rear and helps you make safer decisions on the road.Automatic warning flash for approaching vehicles: When the radar detects a vehicle approaching from behind, the rear light flashes five times to alert the driver. If multiple vehicles approach in sequence, the light continues flashing to maintain a clear warning signal, helping drivers recognise your presence and keep a safer passing distance.220° rear visibility with up to 1.2km viewing distance: The tail light produces a wide 220° beam that remains visible from up to 1.2 kilometres away in favourable conditions. This broad illumination angle helps ensure vehicles approaching from different positions behind you can see the light clearly.Smart brake light detection: Integrated motion sensing detects when you slow down and automatically increases light intensity to act as a brake signal. This gives drivers behind a clearer indication of deceleration, improving reaction time and reducing the chance of close passes.Seven adaptable light modes: The L508 includes seven different lighting modes designed for different riding conditions, including steady, flash, pulse and rotation modes. This range allows you to adjust brightness and flash behaviour to suit daylight riding, low light conditions, or busy roads.Peloton mode for group riding: A dedicated peloton mode reduces brightness and produces a softer beam to prevent glare for riders behind you. This improves comfort during group rides while still maintaining a visible safety signal.Device compatibility with bike computers and watches: The L508 connects using Bluetooth and ANT+ protocols, allowing integration with devices such as the Magene C406 Pro bike computer, selected Garmin computers, Wahoo computers and compatible Garmin fitness watches. This allows radar alerts to appear directly on supported displays.Customisable light settings through connected devices: When paired with compatible cycling computers or apps, you can adjust light modes and behaviour to match different ride types. This allows you to configure lighting output and alerts to suit commuting, training, or group rides.Rear awareness plays a major role in safer road riding, especially when vehicles approach quickly from behind. The L508 radar system provides continuous monitoring of rear traffic using millimetre-wave signals designed for stable detection of fast-moving vehicles. Combined with automatic warning flashes, wide-angle visibility, and smart brake detection, the system provides clear communication between you and approaching drivers. This consistent signalling helps drivers recognise your position earlier and react sooner.The Magene L508 Radar Tail Light provides a practical way to improve rear visibility and traffic awareness during everyday rides. Its radar detection, adaptive lighting, and device compatibility create a dependable rear safety system designed to support confident road riding in varied conditions.Technical Specifications:Dimensions: 38x94x25mmWaterproof grade: IPX7Wireless protocol: Bluetooth ANT+Battery life: 4-11h (solid mode), 10-16h (peloton mode), 15-18h (quickly flash mode), 11-13h (pulse mode, flash mode), 10-12h (rotation mode), 19h (only radar mode), 3 months (standby mode) - affected by environment and temperatureModes: 7 light modesMaximum detection distance: 140m
