- Does the Varia RearVue 820 need a bike computer?
- No, the light and camera work on their own, but radar alerts and clip viewing need a paired Garmin computer or the phone app.
- How long does the battery last?
- About 10 hours in solid mode, 24 in day flash, and up to 30 with the light off. Camera and radar use shorten that.
- Can it record while the light is off?
- Yes, the camera can run with the tail light off, which is the longest battery setting.
- Does it work with non-Garmin head units?
- Some third-party computers support Varia radar, but check compatibility before relying on alerts.
- Is it worth it over a radar-only Varia?
- If you want video evidence after a close pass, yes. If you only want warnings, a radar-only unit is lighter and cheaper.
