I'm using Chinese lights, one on bar the other on the helmet.Maybe not the best looking setup but all running well so far with more than enough light and no battery explosions during charging yet either.See my post on [url= http://singletrackworld.com/forum/topic/best-dx-type-light-from-within-the-uk ]this[/url] thread for securing to helmet.I think The Gloworm looks great for size and light output but is outside my budget

I use the following setup from DX.
Cost about £60 for two torches including two chargers, helmet and bar mounts. Very good spread, easy, no hassles to date. Full on burn for about 2-3 hours on a single cell, I normally run on 50% and although I carry spares have never had to change on a ride.
