I just installed the Moon XP500 front light on my bike and discovered that my Cateye wireless computer does not work with the light on. The light must somehow interfere with the signal from the computer.
Has anyone else had the same problem and come up with a solution? I will appreciate any comments.

    Common problem, there is no fix except use to use a different computer
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..

    Most lights will interfere with a Cat Eye Strada! You need a computer with a 2.4 GHZ transmission frequency or similar;-)

    Thanks.

    How do I know which one works on 2.4GHz?

    Cat Eye models state this. Just have a look on their website, or the website of any alternative model you may be considering. It's generally the more expensive models that do. My Garmin 500 works fine with all lights I've tried if that helps.
