  • Nah, I've been doing night CX with 300 lumens. Quality>quantity.

    ^This. I've been using some Philips light from Germany and while it's not insanely bright the optics and reflector is properly designed. Perfect vision on dark lanes. The best way I can describe it is that the light is relaxing and there's no hotspots. Unfortunately the light is heavy and the battery capacity could be better. Also the mount is a bit wobbly. Fine for a 2 hour dark spin though.

    This should be the case for any StVZO approved light. Pity Philips gave up after getting the optics right and sent it out with a NiMH battery and wonky mechanics. I think the battery is a regulatory problem, StVZO have some weird rules about that.
