Cygolite TridenX vs. Dual Cross Pro?

Hi,

I'm going to buy one of these LED lights in Li-Ion form, just not sure which yet. The TridenX has three bulbs, an aluminum housing, and a shorter battery life on high (2.5 hrs). The Dual Cross Pro has two bulbs, a plastic housing, and longer battery life on high (3.5 hrs).

Are those the main differences? I can't find much in the way of specs (lumens output, etc). The TridenX is supposed to rival HID in brightness. How does the Dual Cross Pro compare to the TridenX in brightness? I will mostly be using the light for commuting but will also use it for some mountain bike rides.

Note - I already have a Dinotte 200L that I will probably put on my helmet when running two lights. It's bright but I would like something a little brighter for commuting.

Thanks.
