I was curious if anyone wore the full helmet like

versus a regular cycling helmet.
Thinking of switching to it in the winter time for 1) more protection on when riding in the winters snow and ice 2) more warmth and 3) piece of mind.
Thoughts?
I've thought about that type as well as ski helmets but I use a helmet light during the winter and affixing the light mount to that helmet (as well as to ski helmets) would be problematic. I also have an issue with temperature differentials. While it may be in the teens to 20s during the ride in, it could be in the 60s or 70s for the ride home. A ski helmet would be way to hot then. The Bern type wouldn't be as bad, however.
