[Closed] Low profile helmet light

I'm currently using a torch strapped to my helmet but the battery life is poor. About an hour before I need to change them.

I thought about putting one of the DX lights on my helmet but having seen other peoples they stick up a mile which is a problem as I ride lots of overgrown woody areas and frequently catch my existing light.

Is there anything out there that is small, low profile with a decent battery life. Not looking to spend more than £50, don't need a huge amount of light as I have a bar mounted light. Ideally I want a modified torch but don't have the knowledge/inclination to do it myself.

Suggestions?

you won't get better than the Magicshine unit, and the strap can be made to fit most places on your helmet, so position it forward so it's lower than the crown of your helmet?

Otherwise maybe a std DX torch could be strapped/zip-tied to the side of your helmet?
