Just wondering what sort of lights are recommended by uk.rec.cyclers.
Hopefully going to commute to work by bike once a week, but I'd need lights
which I can see with as part of the route is unlit country road (Not so
much at the moment, but come mid october I'll be leaving work in the dark).
I do have an old set of Topeak NiteBuster 1001S light system (SLA battery,
6W bulb) but the battery isn't holding it's charge now (its at least 6
years old) and I was never keen on the beam pattern as the lamp had a lens
on the front which gave shadow patches on the beam.
I've got a couple of rear LED lights, so I just need something for the
front.
Have seen the following:
Smart 10w/2.4w Twin Rechargeable Headlight: £45
http://www.wiggle.co.uk/?ProductID=5360009575
Electron 5W And 10W Double Ni-Mh Lighting System: £50
http://www.wiggle.co.uk/v2_product_detail.asp?ProdID=5360013644
Cateye HL-RC230 Dual Front: £60
http://www.wiggle.co.uk/?ProductID=4000000322
Any other recommendations?
Thanks in advance
