But can it beat my dyno light? http://clevercycles.com/b-m-luxos-b-dynamo-headlight

More light than you will ever need (because I know what you need), and no batteries, unless you count yourself!

I like my Luxos because it brings that romantic, candle-lit dinner feel to my ride home. I'm going to get an MP3 file of strolling violinists -- or maybe an accordion. http://www.amazon.com/BioLogic-Cycle...ortable+stereo

I asked my friends if they could see me my lights while I was riding and
they said they could so I know that my lights are the bestest in the
world. And then they derided me because I lubricate my chain with chain
lubricant instead of wax. Finally I was attacked for being silently in
favor of compulsion.

I hope you didn't pay that much for it. My IQ-TEC Premium was about
half that, and in Aussie dollars.

I turned my lights on after it started raining when I was about 5 km
from home and on a busy road. Daylight but raining. I'm sure my lights
made me a little more conspicuous in the conditions.

Everything in product development these days is about connectivity. One company just came out with a new silent smoke alarm. When it detects smoke it sends you a text, tweets your friends, and posts a picture of the fire on facebook.

I got a bargain on my light, but it still was not cheap. It is fine on a dry nights. I also run a cheap front flasher. http://www.nashbar.com/bikes/Product...59_-1___204664

I almost got plastered by a couple of cars pulling in front of me when I first got my dyno light, and of course, I chalked that up to not being seen. It could have been bad luck, so now I have my good-luck, flea-watt front flasher.

Rain eats light. Even with bright battery lights, I often feel like I am riding by Braille. It also doesn't help that I wear glasses. My dyno light is my every-night light, so on really dark and rainy nights, I stick to the lighted streets or the ones that I have memorized.
