I think the two I'm looking at now are the Ultrafire C3 and WF-606A. This thread is a bit old, but it seems as though the WF-606A is a bit brighter. But the C3 has modes !! The reviews on deal extreme (I'll probably order elsewhere, but they have 40 something reviews on each) seem to favor the C3 for biking, and it got 10x more diggs, but that could have been some nut clicking it a lot. Oh, decisions! It seems like the WF-606 is brighter and smoother spread, but it's hard to tell from pictures.
"Momentary on" means you can also use it to "flash" something (it's an extra feature). The flashlights always have an "always on" feature.

No, that's very old! It's hard to tell what LEDs those lights in 2007 (!!) were using.

There are also many "Ultrafire C3" and "Ultrafire WF-606A" models (with different LEDs). Which ones are you looking at?
