Difference is IQ-XS has a built in switch and light sensor which automatically switches it on/off, two side light strips for side visibility, aluminum casing. Also back light connection, so B&M rear light can be installed on the rack. Dis you consider this option before? I’m pretty sure IQ-XS will also have excellent optics and wide beam. Not sure how reliable it is though as there were few reviews on the Amazon saying it died after less than a year.
Yes, I noticed that one. I will consider it if/when the supernova fails. The supernova also works fine with the B&M tail light I'm using. And since I built my own on/off switch I have no need to replace it yet.
