The new Alpha bike light with stunning 8600 lumens is the improved version of the most powerful bike light we have ever built. With a range of up to 500 metres, it illuminates the trail perfectly and turns every bike into the ultimate nighttime racing machine.

The Alpha owes its brightness to the new XML-3 LEDs and the revised heat connection. Thus, the current Alpha is not only brighter but also maintains its performance significantly longer than before.

With the included remote control, you can easily switch between the different light levels and control them via app. The LED bar on the back of the lamp indicates the lightmode on which the Alpha is running.

The 6.9 Ah battery of the Alpha can be attached to the frame with the included hook&loop strap. With the SmartCore function, the battery shows how much capacity is left, but also has several signal light functions. The 14.4V battery was specially developed for the Alpha and is the only Lupine battery that is not compatible with any other lamphead.

Like all lamps, the Alpha is waterproof and impact resistant according to IP67 and IK09.

Overview

Alpha

The maximum, maximally improved

 

The new Lupine Alpha is the improved version of the most powerful bike light for racing that we have ever built. A whopping 8600 lumens, perfect illumination and a huge range of up to 500 meters make your bike the ultimate nighttime racing machine.

Pure performance

Whether directly in front of the front wheel or several hundred meters away: the Alpha will show you every detail on your trail. The Alpha combines 3 different lens types to create a perfectly illuminated image tailored for racing use. Two 22Ā° lenses in combination with two ultra-wide angle lenses ensure never-before-seen Illumination at close range. Four 18Ā° lenses focus part of the light and generate a range that outshines any comparable lamp.

In any situation

More power means more heat. To this end, we have completely redesigned the Alpha, massively improved the heat connection and its dimming behavior. Thus, the current Alpha is not only brighter but also holds its power significantly longer than before.

New Shape – New Finish

The new housing of the Alpha is now framed by a silk matt lens and end cap, made of aluminium. The gray glazing fits perfectly into the design language of current MTBs and the deeper cooling fins help the new Alpha to an aggressive look on the handlebar.

LED bar

Even during the fastest of speeds you can immediately see at what level your lamp is currently set: The Alpha has an extra large, colored LED status bar for displaying light levels and selected functions.

Assembly

You mount the Alpha by quick release directly in front of your handlebar stem. Thanks to the unique sled system, you can adjust the distance to the stem to a minimum and place your lamp perfectly centered on the handlebars.

Bluetooth Remote

With the new Alpha’s 2-way-switch, it’s now even easier to switch between the light levels. You shift back and forth between the light levels in a flash, similar to a gear shift.

Daytime running light function

Sometimes you just don’t want to be overlooked but want to save electricity at the same time: In this case you simply use the daytime running light function integrated in the Alpha.

Lupine Light Control 2.0

The app for the new Alpha offers many possibilities: You set your light levels and special functions as you like them. Save your settings, create custom profiles for your activities, and simply use them again when you need them.

Alpha battery

The battery on the Alpha has been specifically designed for the high performance usage: Software and the control board hardware have been optimized. In addition, the charge capacity display now shines blue.

Alpha Plug

Over the decades, we’ve tried to make every Lupine battery compatible with any lamp head – just the Alpha is the exception to this rule. To prevent you from confusing your batteries, the Alpha plug has its own distinctive shape and color, but if you want to charge your smartphone via USB-One: itĀ“s fully compatible.

Our Statement: Alpha vs. Betty

Is the Alpha now better than a Betty? From 25 years of experience we can answer this question quite simply: Yes! The Alpha is thanks to its specially designed light pattern significantly better suited for handlebar mounting and fast rides on the bike / MTB.

Alpha remote control

Hands free for the essentials

You operate your Alpha with the remote control in your hand or directly from the handlebars – without delay, without cables and without safety risks.

On the handlebars

The Peppi V5 bar holder allows you to mount your remote control directly on the handlebars.Ā The flexible rubber band guarantees you a secure hold on the standard bar diameters of 25.4mm, 31.8mm and 35mm.

At the wrist

With your Bluetooth remote control bracelet, you’ll never lose control of your lamp again.

On the ski pole

We offer a “Schnappi V1” holder especially for LEKI ski poles, with which the remote control is firmly anchored in the handle of the pole.

Several lamp heads, one transmitter

Would you like to operate several lamps at the same time with just one button?Ā No problem – you can connect up to 5 lamp heads to one transmitter.Ā You can also connect a lamp head to multiple transmitters.

Battery changing made easy

A commercially available CR2032 button cell supplies the remote control with power.Ā If this should ever be empty, you can change it yourself in just a few simple steps

Two buttons – two operating concepts

The two button remote control can be used in two different ways.Ā You either switch back and forth between the light levels, similar to a gear shift, or combine both buttons into one.

 

Lupine App: Alpha

With sliders and buttons

You operate your Alpha directly from your smartphone.Ā But our app is much more than just a high-end remote control.

The Lupine Light Control App is available forĀ AppleĀ andĀ AndroidĀ .

Setting the light levels

The Lupine Light Control revolutionizes the setting of the light levels.Ā With just a few swipes you can determine up to 4 individual light levels and save them as a light program on your lamp.

profiles

You save your individual lighting programs as profiles in the app and activate them as soon as you need them again.Ā In this way you can put together the perfect lighting program for each of your activities.

status monitor

The status monitor gives you information about the current power consumption and the strength of the Bluetooth signal.

extras

If necessary, you can switch between single or double-click, activate stealth mode and set the battery-empty warning so that it always reminds you to change your battery in good time.

  1. Lupine Admin

    I am currently riding a pivot shuttle ebike on my commute of 24 miles a day 4days a week. Was using a MagicShine Monteer 8000.1.Cycling through power settings is akward as i have to take my hands off the bars and often end up blinding oncoming traffic. 2. the Garmin mount creeks at times and takes up valuable bar real estate.3. Power indicator lights are inaccurrate.4. The light has a lenghtly cable and scratches bike frame. Alpha on the otherhand is more of a spot than Monteer with no discernable hotspots. Light color is excellent -no sand blinding effect. Power is excellent, but not the peripheral throw of Monteer.1. Love the quick release bar clamp, installation and removal easy and tool free.2. Cable length is perfect . 3. Charging system is fantastic -this should extend my Li-ion battery life.The APP – this is the coolest thing. I can program my own custom settings one for summer and one for winter.I also can disable SOS [unlike Monteer] The BT wireless remote- now I can increase or decrease power settings without cycling through all settings[unlike Monteer] , I can now turn light down to not blind oncoming trail users without taking my hands off the bar.4. The battery power indicator is accurate. 5. Low power notification is reliable. 6. power output is more consistent than Monteer, which would dim quicker than Alpha and is welcomed.7. The DRL [daytime running light] setting is the coolest I have seen, i should get a month or 2 out of this setting without recharging battery. 8. I can use remote to turn light on or off hands free or pair it with my helmet light to operate both lights( bar and helmet) from the same remote.

    We borrowed two lupine lights from a friend for my sonā€™s bike race in the dark. He used the Piko 4 for his helmet and the alpha for his handle bars. These lights are amazing!!! Both lights are so much brighter and clearer than anything else I bought. They are worth every penny.
    They are small compact and last a long time. Unlike other brands I looked at. I will definitely be purchasing one

  3. richie comito

    I replaced my Magicshine 8k lights with the lupine because as bright and well thought out the magicshine were they only lasted 6 months and then the battery pack failed. after a year of hard use the lupine 8k has stood up to all elevations, climates and crashes no problem. the remote is easily lost though.
