True, are cheap but not good enough on power or battery life for me I'm afraid. Now if you just want good light and do not do high speed Downhills- they are pretty good. Problem is higher speed and the longer distance you want that beam to be. Keep your speed down to below 20mph and they are O.K. but O.K. is not good enough at 35mph.

Borrowed the double shot and found it was not for me, but swopped over to a mate and he found it Good.

That is a good price by the way- A Very Good Price They are around £210 in the UK where as the Blackburn is about £180 for better life and Light power.
