Im looking at this flashlight. Is it good to use on a bike? Would the light be spread enough to see on the road? What kind of batteries do I have to buy for it? Can I get rechargables for it? It says its suitable for cycling but that might be a gimmick tempting me to buy it. Would it being 9 inches long be a problem when using it on a bike? Im thinking about ordering this.
That's not a good light for cycling. For one it's too large, and for two it's not nearly as bright as the specs say. Look for a single cell MC-E or P7 if you want a flash light. Both should take a 18650 rechargeable battery, and provide between 45-60 minutes of runtime. If you need more runtime look at the MagicShine light.
Whatever you do, I'd avoid most China based sellers are their quality control is spotty at best. I got my MC-E light at shiningbeam.com. It's currently out of stock, but should be back soon.
