Re: Re: Re: Re: Failures Hey Rog Already returned. Not letting it run to flat is too much of a limitation for me. I like LRI but not impressed with the ReX, battery life too short & recharging too fidly & ... |

Re: Re: Failures Hi Roger 1. Each ReX worked when 1st arrived - after initial confusion about getting out of demo mode. My last one wouldn't come out of demo mode not matter what I did. 2. I used it mo... |

Failures I bought one of these earlier this year and initial brightness was very impressive but then it wouldn't re-charge. Since then Photon / LRI have replaced it twice and none of those would re-cha... |

Owned & regularly used for over a year I've been continually using this pack for well over 1 year. It's great for the price, weight & waterproofing. I use it on it's own for bike packing. My only complaint is that... |

Petzyl Myo XP I owned one of these but had to send it back as the electronics developed a fault - kept flashing. Still preferred it to my Black Diamond Icon headlamp. But a new 30% brighter & longer battery... |

Sport EYZ ultralight sunglasses Sorry to cast a downer on this but the plastic pot it comes in is too small. Incredibly hard to get it back in. And if you can it wraps too tight and after not too long creases and then cracks the l... |

Rab Carrington Quantum Elite Top Bag I've had one of these for years and although the quality and price were good I always felt Rab / O.D. made a mistake by just leaving a sleeping pad shaped uninsulated patch in the base. To put ... |

The North Face Propel I have the 05 version white-ish, now yellow-ish after my girlfriend washed it. It's seen a hell of a lot of use, not sure if it's lost some loft over time but I don't consider it warm e... |

Aloksak O.P 12.5 x 20" I almost dispise Aloksaks for their lack of durability. Why pay so much for something that hardly lasts more than a few uses! |

Montbell Thermawrap Vest I know there's a fashion for 1/2 length zips but I like the full length one on this. The insulation could have been stitched in place through the lining only and it could be warmer but some how I... |

Teva X-1 Shoe I had high hopes for these. Confirm they are very light and airy. But too tight across the toes for me. Why do some shoes look like pointed pebble s at the toe?? My feet don't look like that. ... |
