"At least 12 years ago, I received one of Knog's Frog rear lights as a gift. Today, the light still works perfectly, but eventually a small tear developed in the silicone band that secures it to the bike. This Spring I got an offer from Knog to test out an updated pair of front and rear Frog lights, which have several new features my old version didn't have."
"The current Frog lights were updated in 2022, and they now use rechargeable batteries. They also have nine different lighting modes and a battery life indicator. The overall body design of the lights didn't change much, because it's genius! I've had the Frog lights on my commuter bike since early this year, and they've proven to be reliable, easy to use, and offer very good battery life."
"The first clever thing you notice about the Frog lights is their shape. I think Knog hit on a great design - It's sleek, lightweight, super easy to install and remove, and can be attached to anything it can wrap around. The bodies come in six different colors, but in the green colorway, you can really see the abstract resemblance to a frog. The lights are also water-resistant to an IP65 rating."
"Knog offers a front and rear version, with the front giving off the expected white light and the rear, of course, glowing red. The Frogs' curved lenses allow them to throw light to the sides, increasing their visibility from different angles. The Frogs recharge via a USB-C cable, which is not included. The front light claims up to 80 hours of runtime, while the rear lists up to 60 hours."
The updated Frog lights (2022) use rechargeable batteries, provide nine lighting modes, and include a battery-life indicator. The lights retain a compact, curved-body design that is sleek, lightweight, and easy to install or remove via a silicone band. The lights are available in multiple colors and carry an IP65 water-resistance rating. Front and rear versions emit white and red light respectively, with curved lenses that increase side visibility. The Frogs recharge via USB-C, with claimed runtimes up to 80 hours front and 60 hours rear. Operation relies on a single-button interface for mode cycling and battery checks.
