Yo dudes......

I want to buy some new lamps to rip up the trails in the evenings......
Cost is a factor to a degree, but am looking for some advise and recommendations for re-chargable Spot Lights...

I've had a set of cat-eyes, with 10w and 20w bulbs, and i would say that the lightening was ok, but they wern't very durable and soon stopped working when the rain and mud got inside..

so......., i wondered if you dudes that have them, can tell me what you think of your own..?

thanks

  • I have a great set of Hope LED. Is that the kind of thing you're looking for? heading out tonight on the first *proper* night ride. not just a little spin down a local bridleway.

    Are you looking for rechargable AA battery style or actual rechargable battery packs?
  • Go into your local shop and ask what they use and recommend

    And they will recommend you buy whatever they have been struggling to sell :)

    Seriously though, some shops are better than others and you should take what they say with a pinch of salt, just like posts on a a forum.
  • I'm trying to remember where i read it but apparently if you tape all the joints on the lights then they last much better.
