Ive just found this:-

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Magicshine-Wonderlight-SSC-P7-LED-Bike-Cycle-Light-/250704378345?pt=UK_SportsLeisure_Cycling_Bike_Lights&hash=item3a5f2539e9

on EBay and also at the corresponding website:-

http://www.spokeshirts.co.uk/home.php?cat=265

Is it the same as the Magicshine light often talked about? Does anyone have experiences of this light? Has anyone used 'Spokeshirts' before?

spokeshirts posts on here sometimes, apprently they designed the new magicshine light, outsourced the manufacture to a company in China who then shafted them by selling the design/tooling onto magicshine (allegedly).

If I didn't already have one of the original magicshines I'd buy from spokeshirts and avoid having to wait for magishine/DX and get some warenty comback if things go tits up.

You can get that light cheaper from DX IIRC. The original magicshine dx light cheaper still. and from spokeshirts as well. I have no direct experience of spokeshirts but they have been on here a bit and people have bought lights off them with no issues

I think they found this light in the Far East and decided to start selling it in the UK plus worked with the manufacturer to iron out any issues.

This is the Korean manufacturers website -

Sadly it looks like DX must have struck a deal with Wonderbike as it's the exact same unit.
