I don't know anything specific I'm afraid, but... is it a Busch and Muller light? It looks very similar design and look (and spec) to some of the B&M lights.

Yeah, that's a rework of the Pilot. I've got one of the old models. It'd be OK if I weren't jealous of my partner's Cyo.

Thanks for the replies.
I can see that it looks like the pilot - the features that I like about the nano are the 40 lux and the USB charge socket - great light for the winter and great to have a charger for the summer touring..
I've just found a german website : www.riderzone.de
Using google translate it says that it will be in stock in 14 -21 days so will have to wait and see if it appears in the UK market over the next few weeks.

The CYO 60 is a very good light - I'm very pleased with mine, and this would have to be very good indeed for me to consider it over the CYO if I needed to get a replacement.
The write-up says it adjusts its light intensity to match the rider's speed. My Sturmey does that,,, when I slow down, it goes dim.
I was hoping it would be a full wave rectifier and Cree 3W LED chip. That could be useful. I could rip its guts out and mount it in the Sturmey lamp unit on my BSA.

On specs, it's a similar brightness to the B+M IQ Fly or Cyo R. You'd have to see the beam pattern to work out whether it was better or not
Thanks for that. Looking at it again I can see that at the bottom of the page now. Strange that it wasn't ready straight after the show being that lights are really useful during the winter months!
The B+M lights are very good - but I really like the idea of the integrated USB socket - great for when I'm touring. i use a usb phone and have a USB AA batttery chrager, so I would be totally independent electrically.
