hello,

looking to get a helmet mount for my halogen lumis - does anyone have any experience of the mounts - good, bad, pitfalls etc?

thanks in advance for any comments

I saw the helmet mount for the LED...if it is similar to that then I'd get something else - the LED mount took an age to get mounted on the helmet and kept rattling loose so the light kept shifting - repeatedly not just once...I'd look elsewhere as it looks incredibly Heath Robinson (on a Friday afternoon!)

I have one for the halogens. It's a little inelegant but is very solid, little bit of faff to fit but still only takes a couple of minutes.

i made my own using this - not sure if this exact one but certainly similiar

http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=13432 - £4 but not in stock yet.

Drill through it and then bolt it to your lumi then reattach it to the helmet mount. Requires a judicous use of force to remount.
It is then adjustable up and down whilst in the helmet and secure as can be. Very cheap solution realtive to lummi prices for a piece of plastic and some velcro.
E-mail me can sort out some oics if you really want

I've used it with one of the halogen lamps and never had any problem with it.
