Deal extreme

[PJ79LIZARD]

I've noticed deal extreme now have a warehouse in the uk, so items can be received in 3 days!

Sweet !

Pity it is not open yet , the US one is up and running.

Hopefully they'll accept returns instead of needing to post it back to China.

Just had a quick look there and the lights caught my attention...



Has anyone got the lights from Deal Extreme? If so, how do you rate them?

Or is there a thread on this already that I need directions too?

I got my magicshine from Deal Extreme super light.

Plenty of threads on DX lights.

I have a magicshine and it is fantastic for unlit road/ off roading , a bit over kill for normal roads and 2 of the below which you can just about get by on unlit road sand make good "normal" lights.

magichine.

Sweet. Many thanks. Beats all hell out of the 250 quid I was looking at spending. I'm assuming a simple adaptor will get around the US plug. Or do they ship with UK plugs?

Some of the MS bike lights are about $45 - come right down in price.

Yup , i think you just need to be careful on which one you get as some of them still come with the unsealed battery pack.

Got one of these rear lights and it is VERY bright, while out on a group ride last week i was asked to go to the rear as it was easily the brightest light in the group.

I'm not surprised you were told to go to the back. I've got two of them. They are outstandingly bright. Mine run off 2x 6xAA battery packs. I've only had one complaint - from a milk float !
