Lumen is the unit used to determine the luminous flux and provides information about the total light emitted without considering its spread – e.g. spot or wide area. Lux, on the other hand, defines the illuminance at the brightest point, measured perpendicular to the road, at a distance of 10 metres. As with lumens, this value does not indicate how large the actually illuminated area appears. Depending on the test scenario, there may be further deviations, making a direct comparison of products based on lumen/lux values not very useful.

In real conditions, NACA Road thus shines brighter than other headlights despite comparatively lower lumen/lux values, as NACA Road sets new benchmarks in distance and width of the light carpet thanks to the advanced lens system.

There are four brightness levels: City, Touring, Sport and Max Power.

NACA Road is charged via USB-C cable ( power adapter or power bank). A full charge takes 2.7 to 3 hours. The battery can be charged at the same time as using the device. Depending on the level set, the battery life is more than 7 hours.

Yes! NACA Road is dust/splash-proof according to IP66 and can therefore also be used in heavy rain. Charging (while riding) should not be done in the rain, as the USB-C charging port is no longer sealed by the cap.

NACA Road can be installed with any GoPro mount, e.g. below a bike computer (Garmin/Wahoo). Due to different designs of cockpits and individual requirements, there is no mount in the box.

On a straight track, even in the distance, the cut-off line should still be visible on the road. The beam angle can be freely adjusted on a GoPro mount.
