Corey, after viewing the video I think you should have your own YouTube channel with product demos. Even shooting from the hip you're better than that guy who presumably had a script and rehearsed.

Nice light. If they can guarantee it won't attract mountain lions (can't say 'cougars' any more without raising eyebrows), I'm in.

He he, for the money Bob you can not go wrong.
I have another MS coming before to long, just the head unit.
It will plug into the battery via Y cable along with the other one, so I will have two on the bars, and my Airbike P7 on the head.

Here is a video I made last Sunday testing the GoPro HD in the dark with the lights.
GoPro is not the best in the dark, but I knew that going in, I got it to record rides in daylight.

Great demo video!

Those lights really throw a long, focused beam. I'll bet it's much brighter than GoPro is able to show. Remarkable audio quality and video stabilization, well done!

Thanks Bob.
I may be shooting from now on though in the 720P mode.
More wide angle than the 1080P one.

Ordered the new MagicShine head only yesternight, it should be here by Wednesday.
Now I will have two on the bars, one on the helmet.

Where will all the batteries go, or are they self-contained inside the lights?
