what LED headlight would be the best complement for an urban commuter?

I know that this has been discussed before, but the LED headlight market
is changing rapidly along with LED technology.

The B&M IQ Cyo is the best value for money dynamo headlight. The SON
Edelux is slightly more powerful because of better cooling, is
shielded so it works better with wireless cyclo-computers (unlike the
Cyo), and is overall of better build quality and design. It is also
more expensive. The best choice for brevet/audax riders because of its
high efficiency, low weight, and waterproofness. I have used my IQ Cyo
every day for a year in all kinds of weather from minus 15C, to rainy
nights without problems, and even left the bike outside at night when
raining without problems, but the Edelux inspire more confidence when
it comes to waterproofness.

Then there is also the E3 Pro "Glare free" from http://www.supernova-lights.com/
It is quite new and I haven't seen any test of it yet, but it has a
higher output than the Cyo and the Edelux. However this means higher
resistance too, so perhaps not the best choice for brevet /audax
riders. It has a 5 year warranty and is the most expensive of the
three dynamo headlights mentioned.
