New Ay-ups

Postby Bnej » Fri Jul 27, 2007 7:44 pm

Just got an email from Ay-up

They're offering a new light with Cree XR-E P4 LEDs, $60 for existing customers. Same burn time same batteries, twice the brightness.

They are also offering both narrow and medium beam optics.

Think I might get some? ;)

These are launching 20th August.

Interesting. I'm still to take the plunge and fork out for a better lighting system to aid in my night time rock avoidance efforts. On the other hand, the days are already getting longer...

... and the wheels are getting wonkier :roll:

The trouble with riding at night, regardless of your lights, is that it's cold and my body is tuned to relaxing and expanding :wink:

The current issue [Aug-Sept-Oct) of Mountain Biking Australia has a good article (test) of high-end LED which might be worth checking out.
