I will add to the list.

My girlfriend is wanting a new light and I may want a new one for myself. She uses a 3yr old Light & Motion Vega 100. It has one light mode, and only has an hour run time at best. I have a 5 year old Light & Motion Stella 200, works well still. I'm getting annoyed by the separate battery pack when mounting and the rubber mount is getting worn out. It's crazy how much the price of these lights has gone down since then. More lumen for your buck.

Hers really needs replacing, it's just way too short of run time. She also struggles with getting a tight grip with the rubber band around the handlebars. It slips forward when she hits a bump. It would be nice if we had the same front light. Makes charging and care easier. We are looking at the Cygolite Expilion 400
Lord almighty, son, you are thinking too hard. go to dealextreme.com and buy the most lumens flashlight you can afford. Get their rechargeable batteries and a charger while you are at it.

That'll do ya.
