Lost lid and battery pack and looking for these spares. It is rather difficult sourcing them. Maybe someone has an old Vision 1 laying around. Any help is very much appreciated.

Have you tried Hope direct for the lid? The battery packs are pretty generic - you can get a 4xAA holder from Maplins for pence, and stick a bit of bartape or something to the end to make sure it sits flush.

+1. Give Hope a ring. They've got them.

When one of the pins got stuck in on my Vision 1 they replaced the whole front, battery pack and lens for free, despite it being about three years old.

The Hope packs work slightly better than generic ones, in my experience.

^^ Don't forget that Mirco is in Germany. For generic items like these he would go to Conrad.

Thanks, I call them now and they provided me with the part number and pointed me to the right shop to place the order. Looks like it will all be sorted soon.

All sorted now. The parts arrived at my local wheel builder. Hope's support line was very helpful, great customer service.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

> Quote text by starting lines with >

For syntax highlighting, surround the code block with three backticks:

```

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
