Magnification is totally equal throughout the entire 100mm/360 degree viewing area. 

Unique Driver's "anti glare" system.

Your driver will be aware of how little reflected "backlight" is produced due to the unique sleeve separating the light source from the top of the unit. 

State of the art illumination control.

Extremely low current consumption.

Due to the use of the latest Hi intensity light emmitting diodes, LED the current drain is minimal. 

Auto sensing to +ve or -ve earth.

CANNOT be connected incorrectly. Even if you swap wires on your own connector the RoamerLite-B(c) will still function… no problem. 

12V regulation provides consistent light, with zero heat build up.

Minimal current means minimal heat build up! And… when your alternator (or Dynamo!) starts to get loaded on a wet night… the RoamerLite remains at it's optimum brightness throughout.

RoamerLite-B testimonials...

"The roads & track's seem to rise from the map..."

"At last... we have waited years for this.."

"6th o/a on the Roger Albert Clark Rally..."

"My Wife has one for Christmas but she will have to wait for
darkness to play with it!"

"I loaned my Lite-B to a guy who did the arduous Winter Trial a six-day and three night event through (mainly) the Czech Republic. He thought it was wonderful... once he realised there was a dimmer on it!" ("Crow")

"Thought I'd email you with a testament to the Roamerlite B.
I was in a big r-rally shunt last week, straight on into tree on a missed 90 right; Result hospital. The roamerlite which was in use at the time appears to be no worse for the accident, which is more than I can say for much of the rest of the kit I had!"
(Thomas B)
 

"The Moonbeam Rally never ever fails to be a challenge, but that was on the of toughest events I've done by far!!  However, the loaned RoamerLite was brilliant (!)
 I was very impressed with how much better it was than my original. I must admit, I'm very interested in buying one & will contact you soon!" 
 (A Falconer)
 

Karl Ellis, Moonbeam.
"Well Phil, Saturday night & the Moonbeam was the first full event with it and basically all went really well. Its nice to hold and its certainly lighter.You tend to notice the difference at about 4 am!  The main thing was the light. Normally as the time goes on I have to alter the brightness as your eyes tend to get tired.  I never touched my RoamerLite once during the event.
My eyes just did'nt feel that tired at the finish." 
 


Graham Dance, Border 100.
Hi Phil,  I was very impressed with the RLite on the Border. Not only was the light consistent, the map was certainly clearer (the inherent slight blue tinge from the LEDs was a factor, which is certainly a good thing), my map markings didn't smudge as I moved the RL over the map (something which can't be said for my usual choice), and it was very durable (survived a couple of knocks against the cage etc). All in all, its a fantastic thing to use, and I have no reason to go back to my heavy old steed.

 Andy Falconer, Border 100.
Cheers Phil!! We were 20th O/A and leading the Semi's at Petrol, but we found a 5 foot ditch on a slot 90L, and went down it and lost 10 mins being pulled out. The Lite was superb, even better than I remember, and I'm absolutely chuffed with it!! It was great for when I was tilting the unit to read time cards without blinding John! He even said he could see no light from the top and how great it was, compared to the other range of Potti's that let out a lot of light!  All in all, spot on.
