Mine have arrived and they're amazing!! As previously stated, thanks to Paul, Gerry & Rob for finding them in the original post. 
PS, that link in post #12 is ridiculous in both length and beam intensity!!! Extends the thread width to infinity and beyond.

Exactly the same. And helps with the extra illumination of the swim so no need for a headtorch and also helps with the fish blending into the background

Can't see the intensity indicated anywhere on the page, did you?
I agree the huge tripod seems OTT for carping.
And its not indicated for the one you got either, is there any info on the packaging?
I have a fox HALO photo light which is good, but I was thinking of getting 1 or 2 more to complement, way cheaper than a decent camera flash and arguably much nicer results.

Ediot : the Rhino one says 5W, looks the same as on your link as you said.

Watts don't give much indication of the brightness, proper video lights will give a power output in lux@distance from which you can get a good idea of the exposure you can get.
That other light looks OK, I wouldn't want to take lightstand fishing tho, heavy bulky and they want weighting/anchoring if there's wind about, which adds to the weight.
I use a cheapo generic umbrella bracket for lights/flashes, they usually mount on spigots that go on top of a lightstand, and just happen to be the same size as the top of the chub storm poles I use.
Cheap light and rapid to set up, win win win

Mine arrived 12 days after I ordered it, amazing really considering it came from the other side of the world.
Ironically, I ordered something for my aquarium from Dartford on 25 November and I'm still waiting for it.

Thanks for the link I got myself two which arrived yesterday fast delivery from China. If you throw the make and model there's a couple of guys on you tube that did tests and reviews...
Overall very good for its size and a bargain for a change 👌

Does anyone know of a female Hotshoe Mount for these that you can attach to a Bankstick or a clip on one?

Look on eBay for the Gardner camera adapter that screws into a bankstick and will screw into the bottom of the light

There's cheaper ones than the Gardner ones, I need 2 and there's some @ £2.95 each (seller ID is carly2193).
