just in - lights in motion vega lighting system.

preliminary assesment - wow, this thing is tiny. actual charger unit is within the light itself, making charging a snap. Charging is as simple as charging your cell phone. i am going to love this, as i used to run a niterider. hmmm... niterider runs a microbrute charger, then the charger that plugs into the wall -- and when they go bad, you have two things to buy.

out with old, in with the new - simple, HED, and no-fuss should make this the light to use. have not tested yet, but when i checked it out in the backyard, it seemed plenty to light up the trail. 2/4/8 hours use, depending on setting. BONUS - charges in less than 2 HOURS. oh yes...

can't wait to take her out on the trail.

oh - and roughly 200grams. weight geeks are gonna love this.

complete review in a couple weeks.

Vega Question.
How does it compare to the light output of the Niterider Storm? If the battery and light are in one would you then do you need to buy several systems to keep it going all night or is there a a way to pop the batteries out etc. and charge.
Or is it not meant to be the MAIN light? I like the weight, but If it's not supa bright and I have to buy 3 systems there would be some issues. Will say might be switching my Storm downto the bar this year. Too damn heavy for solos.
To Vega or not to Vega....
