I use the light on medium (400L) and it lasts for 3+ hours and its plenty of light for city/suburb commuting. I like it so much I'm going to get another as I like light. I'd suggest buying the light at REI - you pay full price ($150) which isnt much more than the internet price (120 range) and you get the bombproof, take it back anytime for any reason warranty - well worth it in my opinion.
Thanks for the review. I am an REI member so if I get the light REI will be the place.
