Looking for a new bar mounted off road light with limited budget. Will use for very dark lanes and riding XC through summer nights. Are any of the Chinese options worth looking at? Don't want to spend more much than a hundred quid... any ideas?
I bought myself a Cateye AMPP 1300 back in Jan, direct from Cateye, intended mainly as a backup to an existing Lumicycle lamp, or for occasional use in isolation. Was just over £70, plus an tenner for a helmet mount. A couple of other options I looked at were US brands, so I binned them off sharpish. In retrospect, I think the 1300 is probably a bit too hefty for helmet use, but is fine as a bar light
I bought a Raveman PR2000 last year.
More than ample spread of light on the lower settings for road riding and off-road, plus it'll run for ~10 hours on a more than bright enough setting.
