The EL300 features a slightly more traditional look than many from the Cateye range, but is no less high tech.

As with all Cateye front battery lights the EL300 takes advantage of their OptiCube lens technology to achieve the maximum effect from the 5 large white LEDs. These oversized diodes are individually magnified, resulting in high brightness for 20 hours on constant mode, with a 90 hour backup.
