I am curious to know the USB charge time though... can you shed any light on that from the accompanying literature?

Thanks.... and sorry for the poor pun LOL!Can't see anything in the literature but it seems to be charged up now and I plugged it in at about 3.00pm.
No, actually I haven't – it does come with the helmet mount though, so it's certainly an option worth investigating!Have decided to order the Moon 500 myself now, will be my main light with the Hopes becoming backup/be seen lights.
Just wondering if you have tried it mounted on a helmet?
Might try that as it would give me a decent directional light, tried the Hopes once but it was too heavy.
Taking this totally off at a tangent - I hope you don't mind!
I've just made an impulse buy of a Shimano hub dynamo for £23 in the Rose Bikes sale.
Now obviously I still have some way to go - I've got to get it built into a wheel and then I have to get a lighting system to go with it (any suggestions?) but I reckon I'm going to get lights with very limited need for maintenance, and no need for batteries, for not much more than you are talking about for one light.
There is a snag though - a little gremlin in the back of my mind is tempting me down a route which may end up with building a touring bike.
Yes but I meant switching between bikesActually, the quick release is super quick - you fit the bracket to the handlebars, then slide the light itself onto the bracket and it fixes with a click! USB charging is great, and takes about 3 hours![]()

< I won't be happy with all that light pollution waking me up when you are on earlies you know !
Sounds like it's a very user friendly light Norman, some good features and technology.
