    Opinions on reliability of Impulse 2 motor and Nexus gears

    50 cycles went bust b4 peter showed up imo he could of saved there ass sorting the motors out but was not meant to be, also no dealers are allowed to open motors in warranty so thats why it all went to shite with endless replacements.

    Light ampage draw

    the leds in the light wont be running at full power because if they was they would melt and every light manufacture lie about the lm output. my 8000lm light has a 6 cell batt and at full power wont even last for 60mins.
