Sorry if this has been covered but: How many lumens (aside from beam pattern.spread) do you really need for fast road riding on unlit streets?

Assuming you have set the light to the correct angle (bar mounted light) would 300 lumens be sufficient? Or better off getting an 800+ light and using on half power or endurance mode.

Looking at something like:

500 lumens +
i have a power drive xl (475) and it's not enough.
with it i want a very focused beam for lighting a narrower space further ahead.

Cheers - bigger it is.

@snottyotter - rather than blind them, i'd rather it was bright enough to vaporise them, possibly safer that way.
