In any case, I wrote up a review of the Magnics that will hopefully answer provide some useful information as there seem to be plenty of questions and misinformation about them: http://www.bikeforums.net/showthread...-Magnic-Lights
You can say unequivocally that it is more effective (a subjective user-centered assessment) than your SON/Cyo, and you made that case very clearly in your excellent review.
