I've just bought one of the cheepy cheep torch/bike lights from HK off of ebay. Seems like it might be worth a try helmet mounted. How do folks helmet mount these things? Just a couple of zip ties or something more sophisticated?
Pics of your creations welcomed!

I zip-tie one of those things that holds a pump onto your frame. Stick bit of inner tube under it nd it'll stop your helmet getting scratched.
There's nothing worse than a scratched helmet.
I've got a few of those lying around the shed I'll see what I can come up with. Cheers
I use velcro if possible - to breakaway if you hit it.
my make shift one using hope mount.

Pump holder with velcro strap and a re-useable zip-tie going through the bottle cage holes on the mount, bit of velcro on the helmet to stop it slipping about while I tighten the zip-tie! Quite lucky with the vent positions that let it fit nicely and keep the zip-tie out of the way of my head!
Excellent work chaps!
I have a project for the weekend.
I use one of these

secure enough to hold a mte 900
Also available on ebay but more expensive
Thanks folks!
Was just going to start a thread on this.
Any others out there? I'm trying to mount a relatively heavy P7 torch on a Fox Flux.
YoKaiser, just got this with my new torch and magicshine - v impressed with the lights but the velcro on the mounting isn't long enough for my vent positions. Thinking of sending back or bodging - how long is yours ooh-er?
