The Knog Plus is more than just a StVZO-approved, battery-powered bicycle rear light. It can be attached not only to the seat post, but also easily to backpacks or items of clothing. The lightweight light emitting up to 20 lumens in red (manufacturer's specification between 12 and 18 grams) increases visibility for almost everything you can do outside besides cycling.
The principle is simple: the seat post attachment holds the light in place with a strong magnet and can remain attached to the bike. The small light itself was modelled on the paper clip for the product design. In addition to the attachment option on the seat post, it also has a clip that can be used to quickly attach the Knog Plus to rucksacks, bags or items of clothing. The clip is also the charging plug, which can be connected directly to any type A USB socket
As a second light, the Knog Plus, which costs just under 20 euros, plays additional trump cards. For example, the Australian lamp manufacturer quotes a Study according to which the visibility of cyclists increases significantly when they wear lights on their feet, and provided video evidence produced especially for this purpose:
