price wise looks pretty good considering what is being asked for second hand ones

Yeah, I saw the advert too.
I'm wondering who else will be stocking these, and at what prices?

And the quality Andy!
Be interesting to see how new units on the market effect used prices, and if used prices drop, as I suspect they will. If this is the case then the question for me would be if good used units are the better option long term.

Well I doubt that's is Hella (be good if it was)...more likely a Chinese copy.

thanks for the reply only just spotted it.

Shame, their filament, although I thought they would be if they where LED the sellers would have advertised it (still no legal LED option yet).
