    Having now done a couple of rides with Troutes Cutie I can confirm this light is bloody bright! On the 1st ride I had both the Cutie & my Liberator on the bars to carry out direct comparisons. For outright power the Lib can’t match the Cutie – this thing will dry out wet trails! My only critisism is that I felt the low setting was too low for my preferances, but this can probably programmed differently on thr driver. I liked the hood over the lens as it helps prevent you blinding yourself when you get out of the saddle. All in all I think Chris has got himself a winner with the Cutie.
    Sadly its all recharged & boxed up now & ready to post on to Stoney – enjoy!
    Thanks for the trial Chris.
    Iain.

    PS – Cutie, liberator & diy 1800 on the head all on at the same time was fun!

    Cheers Iain….

    And thanks for pre charging it…..that`ll same me some time after work on Tuesday night….. 😛

    On Sat night i was just messing arround with the Lib and Spider Eyes while out with the dog. The old railway is totally covered with trees just behind us and was a perfect “tunnel” to try them in. The Spider Eyes on Low was roughly like the Lib on Med. Gradually bringing the Lib up into the beam it would blend in with the Halo but the square spot was still clearly visable….Not so much witht the Lib on boost……..however,the SP is still on low 😯

    With them both on boost……I honestly think you could just about drive a car with them… 😉

    So with the Cutie and SP there must be at least 4000 lumens!!!!! 😯

    I`ll give a report later in the week

    No probs guys…

    SP will be on its way to Iain on Monday and ill send the Cutie to MB Kid.

    Prepare to be blinded you guys…… 😉

    Im just busy decorating at the mo and ill give some more details later on.

    FTAO Chris (Troutie) there could possibly be another development on your lights. On of our group works for M Sport…Yes, the world rally team 😛 and he took them to work on Friday to give them a go and see if they are any use to strap on the front of their cars for night stages.

    I kid you not! that is how bright they are. 😯 I could honestly drive my van with the Cutie on its own….. 😉

    Top Job mate! :mrgreen:

    That will be an interesting evolution! I used to do a fair bit of rallying and the cost of top end lights is astronomical. They’re keen (obviously) to reduce weight and the amount if power drawn down for illumination.

    Toons,
    I’ll pass the spider eyes on to you after I’ve had a look at it.
    I think it’s on it’s way to rc200f8 (Ian) now, then to me, so it will be a while.

    cheers

    Trout,

    Is the Cutie still doing the rounds? If so, I’d really like to try it out. Thanks.

    That Cutie reminds me of the BFG.

    As in Doom, not Dahl.

    I like 🙂

    If these are still doing the rounds and it’s OK with Mr troute, I’d like to try ideally the Spider eyes or failing that Cutie.
    I’m in Bristol, currently my email address doesn’t appear to be in my profile, but I’ll try and fix that.
    I’m pete(AT)fixedbristol(DOT)org(DOT)uk
    Just the thing for night practice laps of tbe Bikefest course on the Pugsley, my “brill” lights from last year are nowhere near as good as the new trails dictate.
    Cheers

    I think Chriswilk has the spidereye at the moment then I guess it will make the trip to toons so Flashy if you send an email to Toons for next dibbs on the spidereyes .
    will have to have a look at your Pug too next time I visit the inlaws.

    the Cutie seems to have settled in Thetford forest and is staying there for D2D

    I will be getting my hands on the machined cases later this week and then need to get them anodised so hoping to have some available next week
    sadly they wont be Lazer etched as it still has no name yet and I am struggling to find a local lazer engravers .
    so Stealthy black the first batch will be

    Cheers, I’ve emailed James (Toons).

    I’m still interested in buying a light but would appreciate some help on choosing the right one.

    Bring a bike down (or I could find a lend) and I can introduce you to the new trails here. You’re very welcome to try the pug, if you fancy.

    That looks very tidy that does. I have to bow down to your far superior wisdom on the choice of bar clamp after me spouting off about it earlier in this tread 😉

    Surely given the first post the name for the cutie has to be the bunny boiler

    The spider’s eye lights look more like a mad monkey to me

    Looking great trout!
    My old maxx d’s been sold, this is looking to be a serious contender for my next light methinks. 🙂

    Any details on availability and price (ballpark same as liberator £?)

    Id be very interested in having the chance to demo the cutie after its made its way throught the list of folks above.

    ooo that looks GORGEOUS in black with the silver front…!

    are you just doing them as complete lights or is there any chance of just buying an empty housing?

    Chris that looks great! I thought it looked tight in silver, but in black..! And great decision leaving the front plate silver, looks really classy!
