However I got it to work but had to spend over $20 in parts by putting it into a new case and adding a few better quality parts to it. You also have to take it apart to put in a new battery.
I bought a different one from Ebay and it looks like they still have some:

These are made well, come with a few extra accessories which are useful and work well day or night. The cost is a little more than your link but cheaper than the Nero (which does look good by the way but I don't have one) but well worth it and easy to change the battery. They also come from Australia.
Good luck and happy snapping. |
i bought one of those as well - and it arrived in bits - namely the switch wasnt connected anymore and the plugs were a very awkward tight fit that was not normal - you have to use a lot of force to get it connected - so i am thinking about tossing it - its money wasted. unless he has improved things dont buy this one. that link to the nero looks good
