After looking around for ages at various options have went for MTB batteries illuminator 20 as have older one of theirs and it's been totally reliable .  Truly amazed at the amount of light options out there.  Hard to imagine there is a market supporting so many options and manufacturers.  Just a light observation (badoomtish) for a Friday night

Always recommend Mark light sets, especially over the amazon/ebay 'hit or miss' chinese gamble, as not everyone can afford exposure's.

Mtb batteries are a great company to deal with. Their lights are more than enough for most people’s needs and they’re half the price of Exposure.

I can afford Exposure lights (and indeed have bought some) but always use my luminators instead.

There is so much choice now. I recently got the magicshine Monteer 3500 which is pretty epic and more than enough for me! I can’t imagine what their 8000s is like, must be like the sun...

Mark just last week repaired my two years old light for a donation to the air ambulance.
Absolutely top lad 👍

It amazes me how many Lumens is now considered the min for riding off road, last time I did 24 hr races etc 800 was absolutely cutting edge eg original Lupine Wilma and cost £575 a set. Now, it seems, 800 lumens would be considered pretty dim....

Halfords 1600 on the bars for 50 quid. No wires, just need to upgrade the clamp.
