Thanks Clive, I had wondered what lights some cyclists were using - very blindingly bright and shining straight ahead rather than down towards the road in front. A couple of times I had thought that it was a motorcyclist who had forgotten to dip!!! They look great for a worklight, I shall buy a couple and may even look to see if practicle to use on my boat to help mooring. G.

Hi Clive
Nice find many thanks, COB same as my task light and considerably cheaper, just shown them to a M8 and will get him a couple to try on his LE.
Any ideas about a power supply ?

I run mine from the 24V in the control box. But a 24V PS from aliexpress http://www.aliexpress.com/item/DR-45...e-bee6d63761d7 works well

++1. I bought a pair of these on Clive's recommendation - they look good, they're easy to mount and very bright indeed..!

Hi Guys
The LED lights arrived yesterday, just need a little more information please.
I would like to extend the wires coming from the unit with some decent quality cable.
What size do i need ?
the light has 3 core cable red/black/white i assume red is positive and black negative, is the white core an earth ?
what would be the best way to connect the new cable/ solder the new and shrink sleeve or go into the unit and solder to the board.
Thanks in advance
Mike

The cables on mine were red, black and yellow the yellow one was to make the light flash so not needed. So you only need two core 5A would be fine.

Just extend the cable and heat shrink.
