Supernova e3 rear dynamo light - good illumination, long stand light duration. Stand light could be a bit brighter but it isn't anemic, the light unit is also very small and light.
The Supernova lights are gorgeous. That can be a good or a bad thing depending on your requirements for stealth, but they are extremely well crafted all around.
I'd like to hear more about the Supernova front light. I'm currently running a B&M Lumotec IQ Cyo R, and it's a pretty decent light. I tried the IQ Cyo N, and although it's supposed to be brighter (or at least, more concentrated), I didn't like it. The Supernova looks really nice, and I've considered getting one (or a Schmidt Edelux), but I'm not sure if it'd be compatible with my Shimano DH-3N80 hub. I'd also need a mount that's compatible with low-profile canti's (see below).
