For the same price, you can buy a nice wheel with a SON28, and dual Supernova E3's and not have to worry about running out of battery power. (And still have enough photon power to vaporize wildlife and medium sized pedestrians.)
yeah, i believe it's a "reasonable" price considering what it is, but still. DUUDE. i believe in spending enough money to get quality and function, but it's hard to spend huge money on stuff that is so stealable. like i'd love to have a rivendell bike, and i'd even be willing to save for one, but waht would i DO with it? i couldn't even lock it up. i'd be too worried. i'd hate to have to worry about $900 in lighting equipment. haha. man. i'd sure love to have that much light though.
