W@nna-BE Posted March 19, 2016 Posted March 19, 2016 Loved my RavX Mega Lumi 3 until the on/off button packed up.... Same thing happened to my mates one.....
Mongoose! Posted March 19, 2016 Posted March 19, 2016 After my SECOND Serfas died, I switched to the Knog.The Serfas is much more bright but it CANNOT handle rain. Serfas is k@k! My R489 one also stopped working for no reason.
worriesnot Posted March 20, 2016 Posted March 20, 2016 A bit of an old post I know, but which knog blinder are you all referring to?Because of the responses to this post, I'm looking at two, attached, blinder 1 and blinder 4 Cross @R290 and R435 respectively.Presumably the 4 Cross is better as it's 4 x 11 lumens as opposed to 11 on the Blinder 1. Thoughts? For me, being visible from behind in full daylight with an ultra bright light is crucial. I have this one.They all are pretty good - I just liked the four lights for maximum effect. Also keeps a charge forever it seems...
splat Posted March 20, 2016 Posted March 20, 2016 I bought one of these. About R270 or soOnly used it once, so can't comment much other that its pretty damn bright!I hope it lasts a while... http://www.rydercycling.co.za/images/stories/virtuemart/product/BARONREAR.jpg http://www.rydercycling.co.za/ryder-products/lights/baron-rear-detail
eccc whippet Posted March 20, 2016 Posted March 20, 2016 A red flashing light on the back of the helmet is very effective...my sister has a Met helmet with one attached...it also doesnt bother the cyclist behind you while riding in a group (i know you not suppose have it flashing while riding in a bunch) ...it makes you a lot more visible especially if you have both...seat post and helmet. I want to get a blue flashing light...for the front and back ...especially for riding early in the morning when all the drunks are heading home...they see a blue flashing ...they will pay attention.
splat Posted March 20, 2016 Posted March 20, 2016 A helmet mounted light is a great idea.On my old helmet I could mount one of these.There is no space on my new one. http://g02.a.alicdn.com/kf/HTB1TX_ZHVXXXXbSXFXXq6xXFXXXR/Mini-Brillant-Waterproof-SILICON-Bike-Bicycle-Light-Cycling-Beetle-Warning-Set-White-LED-Front-Light-Red.jpg I would like to get these Busch and Muller Topfire lights, but cant find them here in SA.http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/41uu2T4s8PL._SY355_.jpghttp://cdn.mos.bikeradar.imdserve.com/images/bikes-and-gear/accessories/lights/front/CYP217.tested.topfire2-700-80.jpg
