I didn't mean to sound pessimistic, but I've had 3 blackburn lights die on me now, I know what they're like.
I know I've said it a lot in this thread, but the best lights for city use I've found are the Moon ones.
The Moon Mask 5.0 front and Moon Shield rear. Easily bright enough, strong built in strap, charge quickly with any micro usb cable, last for about 8 hours, very waterproof, let light out the side but shield it at the top so it doesn't blind you, the list goes on. They're the first one's I've found where there isn't an obvious design flaw.
Exposures can have a problem with waterproofing because you have to twist the whole front part to turn them on/off.
