The mount has no wobbles either, it does need to be tightened once in the correct position with a tool to keep it from shifting downward as you hit ruts and bumps in the road because it front heavy, Phillips should have put the clip for the mount in a position giving it 50/50 weight distribution but I guess they couldn't think of everything.
The dynamo version turned out to have a flawed mount, with flattened wire giving rise to points where stress from mass accumulates and leads to breaking. I had to solder metal pieces on to strengthen that mount. Another flaw is the toggle switch. If you use the light in daylight, you have to put your hand in front to ensure that the light is on or off. Still I made the mount investment and keep it on the bike, but I won't be buying more of them.
