| Space-age: The Roxim RX5 |
So, I tried the Roxim RX5 bicycle light.
This is said to be the most advanced illumination tool using only 4AA batteries.
I've also outfitted my wife's Dahon Curve D3 with a smaller 2AA light called the Roxim RS3 to replace her damaged Cateye light.
And since these are pretty scarce in the market, they aren't easily found.
I bought the RX5 and RS3 from Folding Bike Trading at their flagship store in Damansara Perdana.
Michelle was the first to test out her RS3 at a night ride in Putrajaya. She wasn't happy with the high-drain device, although the people who distribute them recommends using rechargeable cells.
On Wednesday, I had the chance to try out my RX5 on my Dahon Jetstream EX.
This light lasted about 20 minutes before going dim on economy mode.
Pros
Lightweight, futuristic streamlined-design.
Takes 4AA batteries that can be bought anywhere. Reasonably bright with a nice wide beam.
Cons
Crappy mount. Expensive and has a poor run-time.
Availibility
The Roxim is sold by Folding Bike Trading at their showroom in Damansara Perdana. Yeah, yeah, yeah, I had an issue with their staff who claimed to have his Facebook account 'hacked'. Who the hell does he think he is? Tom Cruise?

take it easy bro....facebook being hacked into is very common these days and you don't need to be a famous person. i have close family members who's ac been hacked into. I got an email recently from my 'cousin' asking me to send money urgently as she is stranded in Dublin. And she was in fact in Dublin. Of course I didn't send any cos I sense something amiss and called her instead. True enough the mail wasnt from her. So I always give a benefit of a doubt
Hahah!! Thanks for your take on this. Its always a convenient excuse to say that someone had hacked into the 'victim's' FB account and bla-bla-bla..
