It's hard to go wrong for the price. Between the two lights, new battery pack and charger I probably have only $75-$80 invested.

The battery pack is the weak link. The four batteries are linked via thin metal plates and route to the light via two very fragile solder points. 2 of 3 are working perfectly, but the third needs to be resoldered. The soldering kit costs as much as a new battery pack, so I'm not sure if I should just buy a new battery pack or a soldering kit.
