Computer interference using lights

Can anyone advise whether there is a way of isolating a light that interferes with a wireless computer signal? I have just bought a smart polaris front light in addition to the cat eye one I have had for a couple of years. I have never had a problem using the cat eye light with my computer however as soon as I turn the polaris on, the computer readout goes to zero. I tried changing the computer to another brand I have on my race bike but the same thing occured.

Any help would be apprecitated.

    I too have recently had this since installing my Cateye Single Shot Plus front light, my solution although not ideal has been to put my cateye wireless computer inside my glove!

    I seem to be able to slide it down the outside of my right glove and with the sender unit on the right front fork blade interference has not occured.

    In the dark it is only after the ride that I want to check any computer data so this has been my way of coping so far.
