Well, if this turns out to be the best set up and survives what passes for roads around here, I'll get a more expensive light that's seat stay mounted. For the next month or so I'll be going to work and coming home when the sun is out, so it'll do. Unfortunately none of the people said what it was dim compared to. I know the light-b*ner set can be dismissive of anything that's not Dinotte-level.

I do have friends with powertools, but like I said, even if I had them I couldn't use them. Just having the bicycle in my apartment is specifically prohibited in my lease, that's why I had to smuggle it in and am keeping it in the small back room. I can't imagine the fit my landlord would throw about powertools.
