I would not care to pay double the MS price right now if it could have an option for optics that were designed for on road use. That claimed 900 lumens could be much better used lighting up road surface instead of annoying oncoming cyclists/cars.
This is the concern I have regarding most high-powered lights when used for commuting, and beam shots posted on various websites can be deceiving.
In your experience, what light (available today) best fits what you describe, i.e., high-powered light with proper beam pattern for road/commuting, not glaring for people on the receiving end, and reasonably priced?
