7 Cree® XP-G LEDs provide an astonishing 1750 lumens, in a single housing, from 0.25W – 23W. Our lens for the Betty was customized and developed by Lupine; therefore it works with more efficiently than any standard optic. Our own lens design allows us to harness all 23 watts of beam and provide a perfect beam pattern, creating a most enviable portable lighting package. Our highly-efficient electronic converter always makes sure you get a maximum light output.
Future upgrades can be accomplished by anyone, even without technical knowledge. This means if you already own a 1500 lumen Betty, you can increase its output to 1750 lumens with the 1750 lumen CREE XP-G LED array and lens Upgrade Kit.

Good, Better, Betty

I just got a new Betty headlamp and am very impressed with this light''s capabilities. As an endurance racer I have this light set up in the normal mode with 3-step dimming to get the best combination of battery life and functionality. Most of the time I will leave the lamp at 60%, which is plenty bright enough to navigate tight and twisty singletrack at speeds traveled during the day. On high speed descents I turn it up to 100% when I really need to focus on the trail ahead. At 100% I can rip up a downhill singletrack at over 20mph as if it were mid-day. The Betty is a light that will deliver daytime brightness in the dark of the night and leaves any other headlamp in the shadows.
After lurking on the Lupine website for a while I decided to invest in a Lupine Wilma and the a few months later I bought Betty.
These lights offer an incredible dynamic range of brightness levels/burn time possibilities. I''ve used these lights in 24 hour road events and I can run Betty for 9 hours of night riding and only use 10% of the 7.5A-H battery capacity. Not that long ago, I was changing batteries during the night and running a halogen bulb with dim yellowish light to maximize run time.
For bike commuting applications, you are sure to get noticed by motorists and pedestrians alike. For commuting, I highly recommend a helmet mounted light. This is great for getting noticed when going through intersections. On dark rural roads, you''ll have no problem alerting motorists that
