That hasn't really help at all - now I need a 1/2 spider AND a triple cute

I can see the triple cute has a lot of market potential - will you still be selling 1/2 spiders? - I love its throw.

Very interesting.

I assume all those lights have external battery packs?

Trout, of the above selection what's going to be available for the coming winter months?

Also could we have a list of prices and burn times for the ones that are going to be available?

I only ask as I am getting a little confused ( it dont take much) with all the different lights that keep appearing. I am not sure what's just for fun or what's actually available

Cheers mate

troutie - what camera settings are you using? Need to take a beam shot of this later and would be useful to keep comparable.

the half spider looks just the job for a helmet, the full spider is very "short circuit" looking

mmm triple xml cutie mmm

Is pricing going to be similar to the liberator Pal?

Cheers for that Trout, I should mark this as a fab thread so I can keep reminding myself what's going to be available. Currently am riding with a light from a guy in Malvern (Dstar). It's quality, but looking for a good helmet light to compliment the Dstar, the spider eyes looks the business. My wife is also after a good from light, triple XML I think.

I will keep an eye for your updates, cash is awaiting for you sir. Also keep up the good work

TBH I like the Trout Mini beamshot the best out of all those - quite a diffuse pattern?

Although, it has to be said...

... a Full Spider Eyes in a postbox red powder coat / anodizing would look mas mean as hell...

mmm triple xml cutie mmm

Is pricing going to be similar to the liberator Pal?

some of the components are a bit more expensive but less leds used so I expect it to be a similar price
also will be a self assembly option I think if plans go well .
