2 watt emitter, USB-rechargeable, ~50hr runtime, US$40 MSRP if you buy it with just a USB cable (as opposed to a charger). That's encroaching on the territory of a DiNotte 140, in a self-contained light. I have no idea what the mounting options are like, but I'll have to get one and check it out in person. The distributor estimates it'll be available on 8-8: http://www.jbimporters.com/web/check...t_number=97427

Also worth noting: the listing mentions OSP, which is Cygolight-speak for user-programmability. I don't know if that means changing the flash rate/pattern, or the brightness on steady-burn.
