Garmin Varia eRTL615 is a rearview radar with tail light for e-bikes, powered directly by the e-bike battery so it never needs charging; it warns of vehicles approaching from behind up to 140 m away and is visible up to 1.6 km. Supplied with a cable for Shimano systems.
| Warranty: | 24 mėn. |
The Garmin Varia eRTL615 combines a rearview radar and a tail light in one device designed specifically for electric bikes. Unlike standard Varia radars, it has no internal battery – it draws power directly from the e-bike through a compatible Garmin cable, so you never have to charge it. This version comes with a cable for Shimano e-bike systems.
The radar detects vehicles approaching from behind up to 140 m away and sends visual and audible alerts to a compatible Garmin Edge bike computer, Garmin smartwatch or smartphone running the Varia app.
The tail light is visible in daylight from up to 1.6 km away across a 220° field. When a vehicle is detected, the flash pattern changes to catch the driver's attention earlier.
The device offers 4 light modes: solid (20 lm), peloton (8 lm), night flash (29 lm) and day flash (65 lm). Peloton mode avoids dazzling riders behind you in a group.
ANT+ and Bluetooth Low Energy let you pair the radar with compatible Garmin devices and apps. The compact housing mounts on the seatpost or to a rack or bag mount, and IPX7 water resistance lets you ride in the rain.
