THE VERDICT PRACTICAL PERFORMANCE CAR APRIL 2014
" With a budget light for less than £20 and an all-singing and dancing model costing not much more than most firms entry-level lights, it's no surprise that AccuSpark pulled off a well-deserved hat trick in terms of awards. The Best Buy goes to the SP8000, an advanced timing light that is only beaten in sophistication by Gunsons much dearer Superstrobe Professional. Then there's the budget offering we've just mentioned for a bright but basic timing light, how could the H8000 not take the Best Budget Buy? Accuspark crop up again as one of our two recommended winners. Arguably, automatic advance is the most genuinely useful feature built in to modern timing lights and both winners of this award feature it. Accusparks' P8000 is the better value of the two, but we do like the solid feel and stunningly bright output of Sealeys' TL85 "
