[MENTION=342047]baldilocks[/MENTION], xxcycle in France sells a ton of different B&M models, and if you read really carefully, you'll see the different features, such as standlight, ambient light sensor, etc. I love the standlight feature, but I have no need for the auto sensor, since I want my light on all the time.

Get the best headlight you can afford, for sure. The rest you can figure out. Your budget should revolve around the headlight, and you get the rest with the money left over.

My wife has . It's pretty bright and sharp, and it is incredibly tiny. You can barely see the light when it's mounted and not on. It's only about two or three cubic inches.

I'm not sure if this is the model I have, but I have one very much like it, and it's working very well for me. It's a pretty good value at 50€.

Check XE for exchange rates. a Euro is about $1.05.

Shipping from xxcycle has a reasonable delay for Europe. I've bought from them quite a few times, and it has worked flawlessly.
