I'm pretty annoyed that it's dead already after only 3 months. Do I go back to the retailer or try and contact Smart direct? Sending it back to Taiwan or Bingen, the EU HQ would cost more than a replacement light!
Does anyone know any lights that CAN cope with water? It being a fairly regular feature of my commute, after all.
Try leaving it on a radiator for a day and see if it drys it out.
Best suggestion I have seen for keeping the Smart lights dry is to wrap them in clingfilm.0 -

My old Cateye (now superseded by the TL-LD610) is still going strong. It's not the brightest, and you have to fit it to a seatpost, so no good for a saddle bag.0
