If it’s been upgraded it will be the IQ-X in a nicer package. The old edelux was the cyo.
Personally I think you can’t go wrong with IQ-X.

I've used an IQ-X for countryside commuting for two winters now and really like it. I've only had lesser B&M models before, so no direct comparisons, but it doesn't leave me wanting for more, and it's not given me any issues. The light doesn't seem crazily bright, but when riding it seems to put the right amount of light where you need it.

If I had £130 to buy a front dynamo light, what should I go for? IQ-X is £85 or so from Germany, is bright, and has a nice wide beam, but seems to have slightly inconsistent build quality (and possibly beam artefacts?). Edelux II is shiny bike jewelry, will let me feel like amey (#buyer), and has a good beam - recent models have apparently been silently upgraded to a 100 lux LED?
Usage would be for night rides in the lanes/audax.
