They're great, but very expensive - the Video Pro lights are around $2,000. I got the basic Monkeylectric lights for $60, and they do pretty well for from-the-side visibility in winter.

All the coolness from the lights is destroyed by having Mike Oldfield as the music on that video clip ;-)

where did you order them from?

anyone got any idea how big the units are, and what do they run on? Yes I know batteries, I mean what size?
