Garmin Varia Radar RCT715 Rear Light

Garmin Varia Radar RCT715 Rear Light

It’s been 7 years since Garmin introduced its first Varia radar light. Cyclists now demand a hybrid model that combines a camera and light. Enter the innovative Garmin Varia RCT715. The Varia RCT715 integrates Garmin’s proven cycling radar, which alerts you to vehicles and traffic approaching from behind, with a rear camera capable of continuously recording or capturing only when a vehicle passes. Additionally, it features incident detection that automatically saves footage if it detects a crash. You can also use the companion app to download recorded videos easily.

Features:

• Built-in camera records continuously and automatically saves footage when an incident (e.g., a car) is detected.
• Reliable radar monitors traffic approaching from behind, keeping you aware of your surroundings during the ride.
• Control the camera directly from your Garmin device, and access footage through the Varia™ smartphone app.
• Fits most bike seat posts.
• The battery provides up to 6 hours of power when using radar, the rear light in day flash mode, and camera recording.
