We’ve cleared the waiting list and have already sent off a few extra headlights since Christmas. So now it’s time to get back to more interesting blog posts.
One of the most common questions I get asked is:
Category Archives: V3 Specs
Almost Free Upgrade Offer for V3 Spikelight Owners
If you already own a V3 Spikelight, then you might be interested in a small upgrade:
The hinge that lets you set the angle of the V3, has a special black screw. The screw lets you adjust the hinge from loose to tight according to your preference. Unfortunately, you need to have superhuman finger strength (or just be a regular rock climber) to adjust the screw.
User Interfaces
Some people have asked about the different User Interfaces that they can choose with the V3.
At this time, there are three options.
- Competition
- Competition + Extras
- Simple
In my mind the ‘Competition’ versions are the best. They are the easiest ones to use during a race because you can always get to the beam you want quickly. Some people don’t like it because it’s not just a simple on/off and you can get lost if you don’t remember what the different clicks and double clicks do. So for people who don’t like to learn new things, there’s the ‘Simple’ version. This post will give some diagrams and a video to help you work out which one you like.
First pictures of the Spikelight V3
At last I’m proud to be able to show off my little friend: The Spikelight V3.
More details will come later (including how to buy one). For now, here are a few quick pictures:
My new lens! Nobody else has a lens like this one. Part aspheric for throw and frosted elsewhere for a smooth flood.
