Topeak Front Light anyone got one?

Hi Folks take a look at this http://www.wiggle.co.uk/topeak-whitelite-hp-2w-twinset-front-lights/ these are available on ebay in single form ie not twin for around 65 quid looking at the battery packs for both the single and twin they look the exact same

is it possible I could buy two singles and they would connect into the one battery pack as I cant see any difference between the battery packs for both the single and double I gues I just need confirmation that each battery back has two inlets

Give them a miss - 2W LED for that money.


You could source additional heads, but you'd need a splitter cable of the right type.

Have you thought about Magicshine lights, or even a torch.

The Magicshines come in a number of sizes/lumen options these days.

TBH if you want quality, look at Hope Vision 1's - take AA batteries and if you hunt about you can get them for about £70 each. These have a 5W LED - about 240 lumens.

What's your budget ?

I was looking at 150 -200 to replace my excellent Blackburn front light wich offered me 10 watts

I looked at the magic shine and I must say Im impressed

With tyhe topeak I quite like small no obtrusive lights I thought the handlebar mounts on the topeak were really good the stand proud of the handle bar and not clamp directly to it

Magic shine is my other option but I want a small rechargable battery not a big battery back I want a twin one flashing the other constant the reason for the flashing is to alert drivers in parked cars that pull out from the left of the road
