Still, it's darned bright. I've got a pair of them. With one on a flash cycle and the other on steady, it's hard to miss; with one on pulse and the other on flash, impossible to miss. From a very great distance away from the bike, night or day.
Agreed the Hypershot 350 it very bright in steady mode. When I was comparing my own lights, I also did not find a published lumens for steady/solid here are my notes, but they did have it for the HS 200:
Cygolite Hotshot Pro – 200 Lumen Bike Tail Light
LUMEN OUTPUT: Flash Max: 200, Solid:
120
Cygolite Hypershot – 350 Lumen Bike Tail Light
LUMEN OUTPUT: Flash Max: 350, Solid:
200-210 estimated (used the approx 60% of max listed for the Cygolite 200) and 120 would be the minimum maximum, based on the Hotshot Pro 200 maximum solid.
