Blackburn Mars 4 vs Topeak Red Lite Mega

DefUnct · 2015-11-05T20:59:27+00:00

Hi I am currently choosing what would like to be a budget but relatively capable real light and have narrowed it down to the Blackburn Mars 4 or the Topeak Red Light Mega. Do any of you own or use one of these? Have any advice / comments? Also, is a strobe or multi-led flashing mode better than just normal on-off flashing?

My Blackburn Mars has been going for a few years now. Got through plenty of miserable winters. Good light (steady or flashing). Batteries last well although you just have to keep an eye on the light losing brightness and change them. You can either mount it on the bracket or on the back of a seat pack (or similar).
