Bikevis are selling a set, but as they are asking £115 and only a 1yr warranty which to me is a bit steep, if it was 2-3yr then I would be interested. Additionaly I cant find any reviews for them on the web, so dont know how good or bad they are art putting usefull light on the road.

Thre are other makes out there but more pricey, and then there is the ones from China....
I bet they're all originally from China - the expensive ones just have better quality control! Hence the line "Sourced by BikeVis,,,"
Crafty Bikevis sell them on ebay for a tenner more than on their web site, and they use the exact same illustration main photo for another system at twice the already eye-watering price

The second one melts snow and ice too, it seems: "The unbreakable poly carbonate lenses are housed by a 6061 aluminum face plate which doubles as a radiant heat sink to melt away snow and ice in frigid conditions."
If it's melting snow, where is the power coming from I wonder?
I actually do want some as running lights, but not at those prices, and eagerly await further news on your price v performance research!
