About a month or so I saw someone post on here about a new local (Perth) company that was selling a bike light. I decided to have a look into them and from what I saw, sold my Ayups and bought a twin set of the SONlight SL2000 Mk2. I have also decided to do a rambling review which is a little lengthy, but gives my personal observations about the lights. I haven't done a lot of Mountain bike riding with them yet, just one trip out, but I have found these awesome for both road and MTB.

Feel free, or not, to read my review.

Review of SON Light SL2000 MkII

Is this currently the brightest bike light - 2600 Lumens!

Does anyone know if there is a claim for a brighter light than this on the market today? (Darkness Dominator - http://www.troutie.com/Products/Detail/Darkness-... )

I own a Trout Light 7 UP light (now discontinued) - 1,700 Lumens and that is bright but 2,600 Lumens. That's very bright! Is there a limit to how much light one needs when riding...mmmmm? What is the ideal trade-off between light output, battery endurance and weight/size? Any thoughts? Comment? Opinions?

Specification for this beast:

Leds Cree XML U2
Output boost 2600 lumens measured
Output High 1000 lumens
