I have been using a Fenix L2D-CE with this handlebar/helmet mount for around a year now and would highly recommend this combination. $US63 (including free delivery to AUS) from Fenix-store.com

There is a full review of this light here.

Does anyone have experience with lights of this kind?

I see there are several types around but I do not really understand the

The price should tell you something - like there finished and no one
wants them.

I would consider the battery replacement, charge time, etc. before
rushing out and buying one. Your going to charge that up once a day at
1.3hrs each day commute time.

Look for a good LED lamp with small rechargeable, easy replaceable,
safe, keep in the pocket, batteries. They are available.

LED lamps are still cheaper than the $99, what's more just as efficient.

Hi

I found that using NiMH AA cells in C cell holders that any reasonable (I used
a cats eye) light works well. I got 5 days of commuting (only needed light at
night on way home) out of 800 mA/hour batteries, so I'd suggest that the
modern AA's being 2400 will do fine!

Then its choose your system, but I prefer to be able to easilly remove it as I
worked at a place where people would fleece anything left un bolted down.
