Fargowolf- why are you arguing with me and assuming I am at a ferry terminal? I live on a penninsula with one highway. Ferry traffic comes in every 2 hours in long strings of impatient cars weave up the coast that love to leave their highbeams on. When I bike home from work, i am coming against high volumes of traffic. sheesh!

Seeing fine with 120 lumens-perhaps in a city with ambient lighting it's okay, but when my bike light battery runs out, it runs at that, and I cannot really see on dark rainy nights.

And remember, when cycling in traffic, your eyes constantly being hit by headlights that are massively bright, and you don't go blind, how is a little bike light going to blind anybody from a moving distance?
Super bright lights are not just trail lights. Again, follow the logic, if cars can have 3000 lumens or more beaming out of each headlight, how can a cyclist compete?
