CatEye ORB

The CatEye ORB lights are designed primarily for visibility and safety, not for illuminating the path ahead. They are excellent for making you seen by other road users in urban environments, but you will need a dedicated high-lumen headlight if you plan to ride on dark, unlit trails or roads.

The lights use a simple, universal rubber band mounting system. You just stretch the band around your handlebar, seat post, or frame tube and hook it into place; it accommodates diameters between 22mm and 32mm without needing any tools.

Yes, the CatEye ORB lights are powered by CR2032 coin-cell batteries, which are typically included to get you started. Because these are not rechargeable, you will need to keep a few spare batteries on hand for when they eventually run out.

The aluminum construction is durable and weather-resistant, making them suitable for commuting in light rain or damp conditions. However, they are not fully waterproof, so it is best to avoid submerging them or riding through heavy downpours.

Operation is straightforward: you simply press the lens of the light itself. One press cycles through the constant mode, the rapid flashing mode, and the off position.
