I'll ask again... why do I want to buy a tactical flashlight with the exact same LED assembly and maybe even the exact same reflector housing as a MagicShine or Gemini Titan? I mean... the MagicShine and Titan and other bike specific lights will have handlebar quick release clamps and/or helmet mounts as standard and will usually have external packs with 4400 or more ma/hrs. Why do I want a tactical with one or two cells and I have to look elsewhere to buy a handlebar mount for it????

I bought a NiteRider Classic for $130 and crashed the very night I tried it out. Needed a new mount. $30. Both NR Classic and new mount, unopened in its package are sitting in my garage. My MagicShine which is now on its third season is a thing of joy for me. I got a 'Y' connector when I bought it and one of these days I am going to get another MS light head to reach night riding nirvana. I am doing my part to spread the knowledge. Somone did the same for me in this very forum, three years ago. I listened. I see more and more flame throwers on the roads at night. Sadly I still see too many of you cranking away in the dark with puny lights that are barely bright enough to make you seen let alone allow you to see anything.
