$220.00 | | Purchased At: | mail order | | Strengths: | Great light pattern, bright enough for most all riding except maybe above 20mph where you want more lumens/further illumination. Fast recharge, advertised battery times, so lightweight I've carried the battery with me on daylight rides a couple times by accident not realizing it was in my back pocket! Surely you don't notice headlight weight on your helmet. The low-setting is good for like 20 hours and is plenty for snow riding/adventure races/etc. | | Weaknesses: | The switch from bar-mount to helmet-mount to strap-mount is plain stupid requiring a screwdriver, patience and close vision glasses. Helmet strap is a bit long for my helmets. Having the plug-in at the battery instead of the light makes it a challenge to snake cord thru my jersey/jacket. What were they thinking there? | | Similar Products Used: | NiteRider Headtrip, Cygo-lite, NiteSun | | Bike Setup: | Pretty much all types. | | Bottom Line: | Great versatile light for all but the brightest needs. Its not an HID but not bad! To me, the extra cost for lithium was worth it. Should last a long time. Look around for decent bargains. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

$299.00 | | Purchased At: | BIke-N-Hike | | Strengths: | Extremely light weight, Bright and race ready, | | Weaknesses: | Couldn't tell I had the battery in my jersey pocket....:-) | | Similar Products Used: | Blackburn System X3 | | Bike Setup: | 2008 Gary Fisher Hi Fi Carbon Pro, Mavic Crossmax sl's, FSA k-force light MTB cranks, FSA bits. | | Bottom Line: | Raced 24 hours of moab on a 4 man team, I was the first racer to go out with the Stella on my helmet. 3 other team members used this light system with one charge and it was still going strong...un-believable burn time while shinning the trail like daytime. | Value Rating: Overall Rating: |

Weighs almost nothing. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

$299.00 | | Purchased At: | BeyondBikes.com | | Strengths: | Fantastic light, very bright, long life, very durable and barely weights anything. A must have! | | Weaknesses: | It may only be me, but the indicator button/light seems a little bright in the eyes... but its hardly anything to worry about. | | Similar Products Used: | Surfire LED lights | | Bike Setup: | Trek Fuel EX8 '07 with XTR component upgrade | | Bottom Line: | Don't think twice, if your looking for a very bright riding light that will last an all nighter this is the LED for you. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |

$299.00 | | Purchased At: | Fat Tire Farm | | Strengths: | Bright, light as hell, great helmet mount that comes with the light. | | Weaknesses: | None so far | | Bike Setup: | Giant Trance X0 | | Bottom Line: | Never thought led technology could be so bright! I paid the extra $100 over the next step down to get the lighter battery. Considering the long battery life I could use this thing for mountaineering. | | Value Rating:Overall Rating: |
