Key Benefits
  • 200-Lumen High Mode — Extra output for everyday city riding.
  • Three Lighting Modes — High, Low and Flashing with different runtimes.
  • Long Low-Mode Runtime — Approximately 13 hours at 40 lumens.
  • Good Side Visibility — Helps the bicycle remain conspicuous at junctions.
  • Rubber-Strap Mount — Quick and simple fitting to suitable handlebars.
  • Mode Memory and Shortcut — Remembers your selection; double-click for Flashing.
  • Rechargeable and Compact — 800 mAh lithium-ion battery in a 62 g body.

The Cateye AMPP 200 is a compact 200-lumen rechargeable front cycle light for everyday commuting, city trips and leisure rides. Its simple handlebar-mounted design adds forward illumination and excellent side visibility without the size and weight of a high-output road light. The flexible rubber strap makes fitting and removing the light straightforward.

Unlike the lower-output AMPP 100, the AMPP 200 has three settings. High delivers 200 lumens for approximately 1.5 hours, Low provides 40 lumens for around 13 hours and Flashing offers up to 30 hours. Mode memory helps you resume your preferred setting, and a double press switches quickly to Flashing. A low-battery indicator warns you when charge is running down.

The integrated 800 mAh lithium-ion battery recharges from USB in approximately 2.5 hours, and the original HL-EL042RC version uses Micro-USB. At roughly 62 g with an IPX4 water-resistance rating, the AMPP 200 is a practical choice for riders who want more output and lighting flexibility than a basic two-mode front lamp. USB-C and AMPP 200 II versions exist, so the exact supplied model should be checked before specifying replacement cables.

Suggested Use & Compatibility

Use the AMPP 200 on urban commutes, cycle paths and leisure rides where a compact front light with selectable brightness is suitable. Secure the rubber strap around a compatible handlebar and check the beam is directed at the road rather than oncoming riders or drivers. The unit can be removed from the strap when parking.

Select High for stronger illumination or Low to extend runtime. The approximately 1.5-hour maximum-output runtime should be considered before longer night rides; a more powerful main light may be preferable on unlit rural routes. Charge using the connector fitted to the exact supplied unit, as the older Micro-USB model differs from newer USB-C editions. Do not submerge or pressure-wash this IPX4-rated product.
