• I think I'm done with the Fly6 and Fly12 now - for the price, they are far too disposable.

    They both have a habit of just stopping working (3 Fly12s and 4 Fly6s), and customer service is not helpful, to the point of being argumentative.

    There doesn't seem to be much else that has the same function - i.e. light & camera.

    What are the alternatives?

  • I've had no issues with my older version Fly6 and neither has the missus with her £10 knock-off version. Conclusion: user error.

    Seriously though, I never liked the idea of combining lights and camera. I want all the juice for my lights if I've forgotten to charge it. I run mine now in addition to a dynamo setup. Apeman front, Fly6 rear.

  • During the lighter months my cheapies (Apeman and that Aldi thingy) are all you need but come winter they are absolutely useless. Bit of rain and darkness and its all just a blur.

    Edit: Will the expense of the Fly6 get me visible winter pictures?
