I have used this light for great night marathons and night enduros.

With the us dollar at 2 to the pound you can get it from the USA via ebay.com for £300 plus UK taxes.

probably overkill for nearly everyone

Great looking light with enough power to keep half of Yorkshire powered for a week!

Good choice for the solo efforts I guess...

I think an Edison 10 would be a better buy.

Edison 10 I am sure is still the one to have - or 24 racing an Edison 5 with an extra battery to save weight. I raced a 24 in the states and a mate of mine had the Moabs... he had lower light than my Edison and also reliability problems.. maybe an isolated incident - but Lupine still must be King! I wonder when they will revise the 10 as it has been out for about 4 years - perhaps a 100watt equivalent light is coming!

Just a short note - the Moab price has dropped £100 to £550 (changed in the review).

US thing: Yes, you could get them cheaper from the US, but bear in mind that you won't get a UK-spec charger or indeed warranty support if anything goes wrong. 2Pure runs a handy "new-for-old" parts replacement thing that gives you a substantial discount on spares if you send the old one back to them.

I still find it incredulous that anyone can justify spending over £300 on a light.
Yes, I have a bike worth over 3 grand, but a light for £500 is just crazy.

"I still find it incredulous that anyone can justify spending over £300 on a light."

"I have a bike worth over 3 grand".

Eh?

Isn't it all just personal choice? What's all this about justification? Horses for courses.

Bah.

Well if you want to beable to use your 3K bike, in the evenings over the winter, then a £300 light isn't so bad really.

I just paid £159 for mine and I consider that a real good deal. £300 is still value for money.

I agree with Ian, 2 small batteries are far more useful! If I was doing 24 solos I'd get 2 of the smallest batteries I could to keep the weight down, who'd want to lug that thing around with it hogging your bottle cage?!

Anyone seen the new Niterider, Mininewt x2's twice the output of last year 150lumens claimed, and 1 with 3 LED's, remote control, nearly 500Lumens WOW I want, $400 or $500 with Remote, bet that'll turn into £400 or £500 over here though :(

Eccckkks thats just nuts, but sadly so is the price.


1400 lumens, definately turn night into daylight!!!


10x's the output of my LX if it ever arrives :( also 10x's the price, I could buy 10 LX's slowly over time, if I could get 1 in the UK.

£159?

13.5, that's a bargain...where'd' you get such a deal?
