Lights lights and lights

Ok I have just got back in from a spin and notice my lights are v poor. I have looked at wiggle and I am shocked at the prices.

Can anyone recommend a make or website to buy them from.

Seen some on eBay. Anyone used the bay and what are they like ?

Pay as much as you can on lights !

If you want just "be seen" lights you cant go wrong with cats eyes. I have the clear lense version of this http://www.wiggle.co.uk/cateye-tl-ld610-led-rear-light/ ace light

and this front light http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Mode ... elID=46987

i have an older model which is ace. Also have a mini rear light on my helmet

exposure flare and its matching front. I tried several these are best. okay price, light, quick on and off, damn strong light.

Thanks for the replies. I am looking for a light to see on evening rides mainly. Would you say these provide that ?

I'd also like recommendations for lighting up unlite country roads. I have a knog blaster which was fine last year on mostly lit roads but isn't enough where I am now.

^this.

Think about using a torch instead with CREE LEDs you get a lot of lumens for your money.

Exposure flare is bright and small with good fittings but IMO highly unreliable. Mine has switched off completly twice and changes mode on it's own due to road vibration. Ok but I wouldn't use it on it's own.
