Apologies if you have seen this before, I'm never the first to discover stuff but http://www.wiggle.co.uk/Front_Lights_Brightness/index.htm This either demonstrates huge variation between individual lights or could even trash beamshots. Take a look at the Betty 7, 14 and then the trinewt.  Go figure!

 Strange! Even stranger as the Betty 7 and 14 are exactly the same light, the 14 has a 14Ah battery, the 7 has a... you guessed it, 7Ah battery.

 That doesn't seem quite right somehow.

Spot on. Were it true, Nitrider would soon have the light market sewn up.
|
|
Ahem, Nitrider, conjoures up some unsettling images
|
|
 look like they are just pointing in different directions
|
|
The Betty's don't seem to be, it looks like the same light on 2 different settings!
|

Absolutely. In addition, there are no camera details or settings given, was the road wet during the earlier shots, whether frost formed during filming, differing LED colour tints, camera software etc etc. There are any number of variables here that could explain the obvious discrepancies. If I were Exposure and saw this, I'd be straight on the phone because this shoot makes all their lights look pretty poor. I'm not their No. 1 fan, but those shots look way, way out.

You'd like to think that they at least had the camera on full manual and didn't change anything from shot to shot...

 No flash then Mike?
|

 The Hope Vision 2 is also a lot brighter on medium than the vision 4 - how does that work?
|
|
There to fool you £629 have they put the decimal point in the wrong place ?
