Don't have one but folks at mtbr.com says it works well, plus all the chinese dual xm-l 1000 lumen lights are $40 now.

These are $50 but the housing quality is superb.

I don't use battery lights, I use dynamo lights (definitely not the route you want to go if you insist on keeping the cost down, a dynamo setup is minimum $150 to start (and nowhere as bright as that $40 light)).
I'm going this route I think. Looks to be a solid product for the $. The 50 dollar version that is. ill pay 10 more for a better casing any day of the week. Thanks everyone for your suggestions, my head now hurts from the technical details you gave me, but great advice on the certain batteries loosing voltage.
