Is this Adli rechargeable front light a bargain?

    Hi,

    I recently paid €34 for this from Wiggle which looks very similar to this one from Aldi for €9.99. Are they comparable?

    You bought a better light and paid more for that reason.

    A quick look shows higher lumen output on the wiggle one and lithium ion v lithium polymer batteries. The lithium ion will generally have a better run time.

    I'd imagine the build quality in the wiggle one is slightly better also.

    The Aldi one is possibly worth buying as a back up or spare.

    I bought several, for myself and the kids.
    It's as easy to lose or have stolen a cheap one as an expensive one, and a good light on the bike is better than an excellent one misplaced, stolen, out of charge etc.My last two lights cost €60+ each and suffered that fate.

    I got three of them for the same reason. Excellent value for money and plenty powerful for city use.
