In our house we have a vision 2 an R4 (which I won in their FB comp) and magic shine 872 + 808
The vision 2 I find ok on a helmet as it has a very narrow beam this part is v bright. The R4 has been used a lot since I’ve had it and has been flawless. It is has a much wiser beam, a smooth brighter spot in the centre but the wider part of the ‘throw’ is still very bright and usable. Battery life is good. I have the two smaller batteries.
The MS872 is probably as bright as the R4, seems well made but with less good battery life, i have a much bigger battery with a built in meter a lot heavier that the R4 set up.
The 808 was good, while it lasted, but the battery shorted and over all its not as well made as any of the others.
Who is this trout chap? Can he he pimp my vision 2?
