    Not rechargable but rechargable AA batteries are very practical (ie, take as many as you like / need with you for your trip, 10 seconds to change).

    Ayup lights:

    http://www.ayup.com.au/uk-shop-kits.html

    Roadie kit works out at £100, plus around £20 for postage, but then you do have the risk of customs duty as well, but you pays your money, you makes your choice.

    I can vouch for just how good they are.

    If you do get stung, it's an extra £21-£40 on top.
  • I have the ayup roadie kit.

    Cost £141 all in but they kick total arse!!!

    I can't believe how darned bright they are.

  • I recenty purchased a USE Joystick and you will not be disapointed, small light no cables and mega bright.

    Also goes on your head or bars.

    Another one for the ayups and the battery on the roadie kit is a 6hr battery but last nearer 7 in my test. They are bright, very small and really, really light and just beautifully well made. Real stunner. Am I in love :oops:
