That's exactly right in my case, I carry an Ultrafire as a backup light. But only sometimes and in my commuting bag not saddle bag. It's also there for when I happen to be riding a road bike without lights and it's getting dark early enough that I don't want to risk getting caught without. In the winter I might have a couple of 18690's as well.
This time of year I don't carry one though.
