As usual - YOUR opinion and not reality. The design of what I'm personally using is already 5 years old, is still on the market, and probably will be for another 5 to 10 years. Since the company produces thousands of these every year for industrial applications - they certainly have the resources to keep up with the latest technology. Which they HAVE been doing and introduced a couple things that are only recently starting to show up on 'bike lights'. And a couple that still haven't.

My previous light did me 10 years and was only recently retired. If $120 is a lot of money to you - I guess you must cringe at the price of a Lupine - any of them. And I guess you're still paying off the mortgage on that previous set of halogen lights you were using - which cost a lot more than that and put out less light.

Why not take a break from your usual disagreeable self and make an effort to post something actually useful.
