Sorry, boring question…

Can anyone recommend a nice bright rear light for road use for about a tenner as it’s just a quick fix and then will be used as a back up.

Not fussed if I have to eBay it from China.

The booster from planet X is good & bright

Aldi will have some left.

The Aldi Moon copy for £12.99 is good. In store only, if they have any left.

Smart 0.5 w was my go to cheap but bright (but not blinding) rear light. Was about as tenner.

sorry out of stock 😳

Try the Alpkit one, Tau, £14 rechargeable via usb, different modes and good visibility, imo. C

Moon comet copies from eBay for a fiver

all lidle around here, the nearest aldi is a 40min drive sadly otherwise i’d go this afternoon.

i’ll check out the ebay one, cheers. quite tempted by the alpit though as i like there stuff but didnt really want to spend over a tenner.

3 of these? Really bright for the money.

Does anyone remember those skully lights from planet x that were selling for like 99p.

Can you guess why, oh yes because tgey never worked and were a faulty design or batch.

Great backup lights, I’ve got the Strap Ons (ooo matron)! 😯 😆

Those planetx ones lunge linked to are good too. Couple of those on the commuter

If you don’t mind AAA batteries, the Moon Pulsar is pretty bright and is about £12. They reckon battery life is about 40hrs.

Comes with lots of attachment options!

For a tenner or less?

two of these spend the change on a big pack of AAAs…

Only Because I have one I know they’re bright enough, and I know they’re weather tight because mine is several years old now. Bright and robust that’s the best you can expect from a “cheap” rear light…

I also have a USB charging lezyne zecto knock off I got from eBay a couple of years ago that’s still going strong, but I couldn’t 100% recommend one over the PX 1/2 Watt, because what I bought years ago from HK for a fiver could well be nothing like what you get from the same listings now…

prob with the planet x ones is the 3.95 post so by the time thats included and batteries i may as well buy the alpkit usb jobbie, good shout otherwise.

fussy aren’t i!!

Is that Planet X light supposed to have such a goofy name?

I mean, the “Phaart Bleep”?

Got a Wilkinsons near you?

£8.00 gets you a really bright light.

Got one that’s ~2 years old, still going strong.

Nah, I’m sure it was a complete accident
