In only they made the 600 with a drop-in battery that I can carry along........
AYUPs have a high and low beam (as well as a flashing mode). Approx burn time - 6hrs on high, 12 hours on low and days on flashing .
Pretty compact lights, can be used on road or MTB, helmet mount is available as well. Battery is in a neoprene pouch that can be velcroed to stem or handlebars. Can be used as a rear light as well.
