There are other helmets that offer integrated lights. The L

Like what? I suppose that having a helmet that can brew coffee or make breakfast for you might have some benefit but a helmet's primary...nay, it's only...function is to provide impact protection.

The least you could do is be honest and quote me in context. Yes, the goal of the Torch helmet is to make a helmet with lights but there is a difference between "light" and illumination.

And I think you are being overly belligerent and, frankly, insulting. I disagree with you about the damned helmet. That's all. Lighten up.
