New Lupine and Ay-Up

This week we had a visit from both UPS and FedEx. Anytime that happens, it's a good week. Especially when what they bring are lights.

First up, Lupine.

Rather than send along totally new lights, Lupine sent us the upgrades for the Wilma and Betty.

I haven't installed the new emitters, yet, but I'll document the process when I do. Like I did with the last upgrade kit we looked at. I should have that up shortly after MLK Day.

Next up, Ay-Up.

Ay-Up sent us their latest in a killer box. Their new case is the toughest I've seen, by far. I'd have no problem dropping this thing off the roof of a moving car*. It's that tough.

This is their V4 Adventure kit and comes with two light heads, two bar mounts, a helmet mount, the Gecko battery mount, headband and three batteries. Oh... and the Saxon cap, to turn the lights red. The charger can charge two of those at once.

The lights included in the kit are the same intermediate and narrow beams that we looked at last winter. They also sent a wide beam light head, so I'll have that in the beam shots, too. The batteries are their new High-Low-Flash batteries. No longer are they just on/off.
