If it's just to be seen, rather than for seeing most cheap ones should do. The main failing ime of the really cheap ones are the attachments, rather than the lights.
Personally I'd get two sets. One on the bike and another on your bag. Plus the advantage of them being on your bag is you don't forget them or leave them on the bike.

Yeah just to be seen really. The best I've found so far in my 15+ years is these:

But i've just lost my front one, and the rear has run out of battery, I don't like that they use some weird watch style battery that I have to buy online, and they aren't very bright...

I am struggling to search this thread properly with the new search format but would like some advice. Apologies in advance as this has probably been answered many times before.
I need a cheap light set for my beater:
sub £20 (they will get lost eventually, either by forgotten and left on the bike when locked and nicked or just go missing).
Quick to snap on and off the handlebars and seatpost when locking up.
waterproof enough to deal with Manchester's winters
Cheap and readily available in the supermarket batteries
Is there a generally acknowledged "best" in this category?
