Except that the only warranty information I could find on that site was a 14 day return policy that doesn't cover shipping or international charges.
Ooh! Ooh! I'll be Burton: (Switching on Burton mode) "Don't buy it because you haven't taken out a 30 year mortgage on the light and it doesn't have a millennial warrantee...way better than lifetime. It may be out of date in a year but if you want quality you have to spend the GDP of a good European country. Otherwise you've obviously bought crap and don't know anything about quality."

Poking aside, I don't know if I'd buy extra lights just for spares, masterofslience, because the technology is changing so rapidly and they are so inexpensive. Since you already have a light, use this one to augment that light and watch for advancements. Move the other light to your helmet.
