Note the four heat sinks top of unit.

How does the output compare to the Ay-Ups

Rob's picture

I would imagine this will kick ass over even the new Cree Aye-Ups, but we will know on the weekend when some beam comparisons will be taken no doubt.

According to the Cree datasheet they should be about 50% brighter.

FWIW, another advantage is the bFlex controller which is much better than the simply on/off Ay-Up have right now anyhow.

These are exactly the same as Christines, just not in that pretty pink colour. As for comparing to Ay-Ups, don't, I hate to see you upset.

I remember seeing them in the distance as roid girl was mixing it with the roid boys, well out in front of me - they certainly were bright (and the light output was good too).

Alas that was a long time ago, before she needed to disinfect herself after riding with me.
