Hi, Where can I find good price on planetbike superflash tail light in white color?

That may have been a sale. I generally see them going for $25-35.

That's about as good as it is going to get.

Great light. Worth every penny. I paid $25 at my LBS and do not regret paying a few dollars more than online prices. I figure with shipping it came out about even.

Nice enough for a slick commercial product. I can safely handle doing my own 12 volt rechargeable wiring and have a xenon strobe 360 degree flash, more intense then any LED product I have seen, and costing barely half of what a Superflash costs. Check out the strobes at www.allelectronics.com , please.

Hmm, the customer comments aren't exactly reassuring...

Uh, that's not a superflash.

But I have used All Electronics strobes in the past. They are very nice and cheap, but they will NOT last if you have rough roads. I went through 2 of them; the gravel roads I ride on eventually rip the heavy capacitor out of the circuit board; it's done that on both I destroyed. Unfortunately the ones I've found that looked more durable were also a lot heavier/bigger too.

-1 on allelectronics.com from me as well. They no longer ship to Canada. Electronics Goldmine is much better (or BGMicro if you like).
