Yep, up here already a few weeks of it being pretty dark by 2000hrs.
Growing group of us are venturing out, so guidance around lighting options are going down well. DX are getting a few orders for MCE & P7 torches at the mo.
I’m currently (no pun…) running an old Trout quad on the bars and my Ay-Ups on the helmet.
Running the Trout quad v Magicshine on the bars – the quad just snatches it. However when my mate sticks on my MCE torch it is certainly brighter than the Ay-Ups. But….I also have the dinky 3hr Ay-Up battery pack with switch mounted to my helmet so swings and roundabouts.
The surprise package is my mates Lumi halogen which Trout converted using 20m triple Cree, etc last year. It’s got great output, is simple and although using the most basic driver, does not actually suffer from heat – my mate does switch it off if not moving for any length of time.
The 7-Up will be unleashed on Saturday night where we’re going a bit further afield and where it is a bit more technical. I’ll make sure to ride at the back 😉
Surf – how did your comparison Luminous v Trout work out? Did I miss it?
