I got mine yesterday, seem pretty good, and I had a flashing pack too… I wonder what the postie was thinking… :?

Got mine yesterday too. 8 bucks can’t complain. When they stop working at least I will have something to throw at the crows.

Got my set last night for me and the girlfriend.

Nice and bright and I like how it goes the fast blink first.

Can’t complain for $8.

</div>

got mine a while back.

not bad. certainly not bullet proof or the greatest design. the hook for the rubber band bit is separate to the silicone bit. i’m predicting i’ll lose it at some point. other than that they work well and are reasonably bright. good to throw in the pocket when out to the pub.

shoulda bought a couple of sets for easy replacement.

Given that so many people ended up ordering these, people should have combined their order to get the volume price breaks and save some more $$. Or people who are now thinking of ordering should do this. First break at 3 sets, then 10 I think.

I grabbed 2pr as spare lights for the spare bikes, happy with what they are for the price. Was also happy to find a case to house the 1.8" HDD from my dead iRiver MP3 player.

I ordered two packs and one from each pack does not work, but for the price, whatever.

just ordered two sets, handy to have as spares and to use on pub runs.

If anyone is looking for a slightly better version, Abbotsford Cycles have some great ‘knog like’ lights in at the moment too, they’re $25ea but seem strong, reliable and are super bright with two LED’s

I don’t suppose anyone here could order me a couple of sets of these and I’ll give them the cash?

Sure, they might be better, but for that price, I can buy 5 sets of the dx ones… are they 5 times better?
