OK, thanks very much for the info. chaps.
Despite your reservations Sam, which I understand, I think this light will probably do me fine for the gentle sort of caving which needs be my advancing state of senile decay permits nowadays. I suspect it's a step up in reliability over my trusty old Nife (bought originally from the MNRC for thirty shillings).
It appears this light is not actually very "Water Resistant", but appears able to survive the occasional dunking, a fact I find surprising given the sophistication of the electronics within.

Is it the old Myo XPs being sold off, to make room for the much brighter 2008 model?
How much were they going for?
They've got 'em reduced from a RRP of ?55 to ?30. I think I'll lash out on one; it can be a present for my wife to help her on the cellar steps as she ventures down to fetch my nightly bottle of beer.
