I will be using a SP dynamo with Philips Lumi Ring tail light. This will be my "thrifty but effective" build.

I'm also starting a bike build specifically for night time rides and extended rides in the winter since batteries pretty much suck below 20F. I already have the wheels built up with Son28 ISO Disc hub with Luxos U front light. This will be my "not even close to thrifty, but quite effective" build. I'm hoping this setup will be good enough for the high 20mph's. I'm still deciding on a tail light. I want the B&M Toplight Line Brake Plus to work as advertised, because for me, it would be helpful, but the reviews are mixed. So I'll probably go with the B&M Toplight Line Plus.
