Winter Lights £50-£60?

Squillinossett

Hi,,

I am looking for some winter lights that will be strong enought to light the way during my winter training.

I ride on mostly lit routes, but some are still a tad dark, so want something a tad stonger.

I have seen these from merlin, seem a bargin at £53 with discount.

Will these be decent enough as I dont want to spend more than £50-£60 as I have spend far, far more than mrs squill knows about this year (she thinks my ultegra/105 groupset cost £200 new & fitted)

If anyone has any other suggestions please chip in.

Many thanks as always

You might aswell just get a fenix torch, it would be brighter and lighter and cheaper and you can use it as a torch too.

Magicshine from Dealextreme?

He probably wants it sometime soon, winter would be over by the time it arrived.

Shame cos the magicshine is a great light.

If you decide to buy a torch there`s a code to get 10% off at flashaholics if you are interested.

I've just received my magicshines - awesome. Ordered about 10 days ago from Geoman. Fantastic service, great quality, highly recommended.

Went for this, thanks guys

Are you aware it doesn`t take AA batteries despite what it says on the "item specifics"?

andrew_s

18650 batteries for it from here

I do trust that you weren't led to believe it took AAs?

Squillinossett

Yea, I have ordered some 18650 bats and a charger as well

Plenty bright on pitch black roads and cheap as chips compared to other lights, after I replaced one buld with a 6w one.
