Torchy the Battery Boy is selling these which bodes well, seems like a great idea. Anybody tried one?

    I have one on for my commute. They're pretty reasonable quality. Well worth £11, rear light is bright, lasers look kinda cool, every little helps. I had the more horizontal design one originally. Batteries leaked and it died, then bought the one in your link as thought it looked a bit better. Still going strong. Although I always have the small Knog lights as back ups.

    Reviews arent great - not very visible apparently unless you are up close and looking for them.

    Not that impressed - the laser lines are quite dim, and mine failed completely after about 2 hours. Off to test Torchy's no quibble return policy.

    Damn, the thread title had me thinking of side-mounted laser canon to take out dodgy drivers... :wink:

    good grief side lasers, not sure if you would be any safer with these somehow.
