I can see brilliantly at 27mph in pitch black areas with no moon out.

And a big sell about the knog computer was yes it's easy removal for when locking up in sketch places, and the fact I could mount it on my stem instead of my bars.
For the record, I would never strap an off-brand, high power chinese knock-off lamp to my head.

It's one thing to have your MagicShine battery pack burst in the flames (which happened, and necessitated a recall by GeomanGear), because that's strapped to your frame. A head lamp... seems risky.

If nothing else, I bet it keeps you warm in the winter.

But that's just me, and what do I know.
