October 27, 20169 yr I guarantee that you'll be happy with this one, which is smaller, lighter and a lot better looking: http://www.pedelecs.co.uk/forum/threads/the-new-best-headlight.25228/
October 27, 20169 yr Author Hi d8veh I have that one, I got it way back when you put it on here and I'm more than happy with it. I just need a light now for my helmet and what I was thinking was put the one you said about on my helmet then fit the solarstorm on the bars. I have just found this website opticfire and they don't look to bad and they have this light at £21.99
October 27, 20169 yr Hi anyone use this light and if so what do you think of it?[ATTACH=full]16130[/ATTACH] I have this one with a USB connector I also have the three led version I paid 4.99 delivered for the 2 led version and hooked it up to a 5000mah back up battery pack from aldi (7.99) It's the most bang for buck light system and is very bright. For night rides on the South Downs I use both. One trained near and one distance On the road the two is plenty enough on its own My tuppence anyway
October 27, 20169 yr Hi anyone use this light and if so what do you think of it?[ATTACH=full]16130[/ATTACH] I have this one and find it really good. About 1.5 hours on full beam. At the end of the day its all about numbers.. light output v available battery. It is my second one as first got stolen.. I paid £15 with 4 cell battery and charger from amazon , arrived next day
October 27, 20169 yr I take it you are on about the solarstorm light Yep https://www.amazon.co.uk/CohesiveTech-Headlight-Rechargeable-activities-maintenance/dp/B01G6OV5UC Came with a surprisingly useful free rear led light

In fact the 3 light that SW has looks dam cool!
October 27, 20169 yr Author Ok that will be great, thanks for that. I have just it the buy button on the opticfire for my helmet but I may still go for the one you have.
October 27, 20169 yr just get a y lead and run two of them but will half the batt pack. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/262503254189?_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT http://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/PY4AAOSwXeJXc7df/s-l1600.jpg
October 27, 20169 yr Author Well I just put a order in for this light so I will let you all know what I think of it
October 27, 20169 yr Steve, why not just buy a second light light the same as the one that D8veh recommended and that you already own? I mounted the mini light onto the side of an old helmet a couple of nights ago, held on with Haibike ties, dragged out a four cell battery pack that had been laying on the shed floor for the last three years, then headed out to try it. It was easily up to the job, with both low speed tight terrain, and with 30mph down hill, which I still need to upload. Sadly I hadn't mounted the camera into the housing properly, hence the weird outer circle and image. But even with this cock up, and using a cheapo SJ4000, you can see that it isn't a bad set up. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B-q2w-qHS0Q edit, just crossed with your post Steve, so too late. .

October 27, 20169 yr I bought that one. Great and very powerful light It certainly has plenty of recommendation from forum members. When I bought mine I needed it fast and this one wasn't available on prime. Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk
October 27, 20169 yr Well I just put a order in for this light so I will let you all know what I think of it[ATTACH=full]16133[/ATTACH] Got a link for it? It looks ok Sent from my SM-G920F using Tapatalk
October 27, 20169 yr Is this suitable? https://www.7dayshop.com/products/7dayshop-rechargeable-t6-cree-bike-headlight-bundle-with-spare-battery-pack-ds-009battbundlex1
October 27, 20169 yr Author Hi Eddie I did think about it and I think it's a great light but the only thing that put me off for use on the helmet is that it's not a spot beam and that's why I went for the opticfire Www.opticfire.co.uk If anyone wants to check them out.
October 29, 20169 yr Author Anyone ever had a light for torchy the battery boy? And if so what do you think. Need to get another light now, the small one I had on the bars won't work anymore and I only got about 14 hours out of it.
October 31, 20169 yr Author Just put a order in for this light from torchy boy Just hope it's ok. It's a xeccon geinea 1
