One has to go really big to get more than 2 or 3 hours on high without a dynamo or external battery pack.

I own an Exposure Strada 1200. It will burn 3 hours at 1200 lumens but will burn 10 hours on medium. The medium setting on this light is more than many other lights on high and burn time is never an issue. The tradeoff is size, weight and cost. It is heavy, big and cost a small fortune.

Burn time on smaller lights can be extended by turning them down to the medium or low setting when on quiet roads, cruising on trails or climbing slowly.
