LED bike lights

Seems some people on the patrol are interested in the latest on bike lights. Well we all know that LED lights are getting better and better and less expensive.

It appears to be a knock off of a $400+ light from Lupine called the 'Tesla 4'. But only costs about $80. Its what happens when a product gets made in China.

You can get a basic light here with free shipping.

They have the magicshine for $85 plus shipping but also sell parts such as spares and even a helmet mount adapter.
