I saw Eric out a few weeks back lit up like a damn train on the path around West Chicago I think. Right now we are researching some lighting systems. I don't get how lights are as expensive as they are. ****, I could get a Mac for some of the light systems out there. MSRP on some lights is taking cost and multiplying it by 10 or more. I just don't get it.
Did somebody page the king of cheap lights? I've been trying this so far this year. It's cheap and works great. The bar mount is a little hokie, but it's been through a bunch of night rides and banditcross races... no problems. I get about 2 hours on a battery, but always have a spare (they're super-cheap):

The down side is that it will take them 3-5 weeks to get to you. A few people on our team have this light. You can get it from their American warehouse. Gets here a lot quicker, and looks to be really decent:
