Anybody have any experience with this headlight?
Busch & Müller Lumotec 2 Plus Headlight - Harris Cyclery bicycle shop - West Newton, Massachusetts
I currently have a generic 2 bulb headlight that came with my Gazelle, powered by a bottle dynamo. This was fine until I added a Busch and Muller Toplight BrakeTec rear light. As well as not having a stand light function, the extra draw seems to make me have to go a bit faster to obtain full brightness from the headlamp. This presents issues while on hills or with wind (which is prevalent in the open areas near me), so I feel I should get something better while on a budget. I would go LED but I dislike the white colored light they emit against certain surfaces, as well as cost compared to how much night riding I do, which isn't much especially with the days getting longer. I'm hoping this light will bring the full brightness speed down, but I'm not sure if 17LUX is a decent brightness? I mainly ride on suburban roads with overhead street lighting, sometimes next to forested areas, and occasionally city riding. Any opinions?
