Cree LED lights question

After reading so many positive reviews I went and bought one...
http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/111000246716? ... 1423.l2649
I waited 2 weeks then got a message saying the light had been returned to sender because customs rejected it. They said you can't send this sort of battery pack to the UK :shock:
Where did you all buy your 3x Cree LED lights from?

Same place as you. Customs don't examine every package coming into the country and the new laws stating that Lithium-Ion batteries can't be shipped by air (due to spontaneously combusting) aren't widely known to most custom agents. Guess you were just unlucky.0

Have you tried them out yet?0 -
I really do think when it comes to lights you should try and stretch to magicshine. Ive had an mj808 for 2 years and its been spot on. Think i got it for £70.
Theres a guy on here (has a cannondale jekyll) who bought some cheap ebay lights and the battery pack literally blew up whilst charging.0 -

What about the 100+ pages of generally happy people though? viewtopic.php?f=20005&t=12807034
Not trying to say they are better than more expensive options but I wouldn't be put off by one horror story either.0 -

Recommend getting an OP reflector for those (bit on the spotty side with the SMO reflectors that come with them).0
