    lol. You get what you pay for, and for someone who is seriously into night riding then £325 is a good investment.

    Have a mate who does night racing and had a failure, oops. Had to follow people for some time before his stint finished.

    It's got it's own battery, just plug the whole thing into the wall and it charges - enough for 3 hours solid on the max setting... according to the book it's got a 9400mAh battery in it
