Great - the lanes I ride on a 30 min commute, plus forest, mean it’s unlikely I’d come across another car - super rural and super dark. The Strada had a pretty car-friendly beam however and I like the spread.
I came across the Sinewave light which also has no road beam in the same way as Supernova. I have a B+M IQ-XS to test for now and will give the Sinewave a go after summer.

In my experience going from mega lumens to a well-engineered dynamo light (Son Edelux II) was no problem - yes it might light up slightly less of the buildings around you and fewer road signs 3 miles away, but the focus and spread is excellent, plenty bright enough for unlit paths and lanes. It's also super well positioned/angled for oncoming drivers etc, having seen it myself from the other way!
