Anybody Use Cygolite Headlight System?

Cygolite's systems seem to be significantly less expensive than anybody else's. Anybody been using
one for a while? How do they compare with other headlighting systems you used or know about?

I have a CygoLite Night Rover with SLA battery and it was OK. It's good enough for riding at night
at say < 12mph.

I had occasional problems with the plug making a good connection. I currently use a NiteRider Head
Trip as my primary head light.

I use the NightRider system. It works great for me. I get 16 watts for about 1.5 hours, or 3 hours
on lower power.

I use a CygoLite NiteRover for my commute. It's OK, but ugrade the battery if you plan to use it
alot. I have the WaterBottle NiCad, and I can run it about 1.5 hours at 12 watts.

I haven't had any problems with the unit, except that I dropped it and one of the bulbs didn't work.
They had a new bulb in my hands in 3 days.

I use a Cygolite Night Rover with a gel pack battery. It is okay. Not as bright as i would like. I
would not have personally bought it. It was a gift. But the upside is that the light stays lit for
2-3 hours in low mode.
