yep - a few online vendors offer nightrider HIDs for just under $300 this time of year.

That's a hella discount!

At $289 the price is still stupid high.

All of the reviews show how great it is. They don't show you all of them that fail on rides.

Just buy one of these for $40 more. You can go for the same money with the slow charger, but I would get the rapid. 2 years with good success now.

Yah but it's also super bright.

If you get it don't look at other people while talking you'll burn their eyes right out from their sockets.

I've been eyeing those Cateye LED lights.................the Double shot I think it's called.........not too expensive and good burn time.

I am with you on the price being high, but if you have been out on the trail with someone that has one, you know it is worth the money!!! I have a NR head trip I got this fall. a bunch of guys I ride with have the NR HID lights... I didn't want to spend the money on one cause I didn't know if I would like night rideing enough to spend that kinda money!!! I ended up buying an upgraded 15w bulb for mine just so I could eliminate all the shadows cast by riders with HID's behind me!!!
THEY ARE STUPID BRIGHT

THe trail tech , is still the best Buy I have seen on HID's

Berkshire Rider just got one , and it is just as bright as all the others.

I concur. It's a great light. 3 years now with no issues but countless friends that've had various Niterider products fail on the trail.
Sometimes you can find a 10% discount banner on mtbr. Just keep refreshing the homepage.

Stupid bright is not necessarily better. IMO a light that's too bright gives you tunnel vision.

It ain't bright unless you can tan by it...

Anybody use the Blackburn X6 setup? 2 lights for $249 sounds like a great deal.

Same thing with the Trailtech. I have to be careful not to look directly at people when talking to them during stops.
