Thanks everyone for the heat info. I think I'm gonna take the plunge. At first the velcro mount didn't bother me as I have a velcro mounted Performance Viewpoint. The PV uses a velcro strap through the lamp base but batteryspace looks like velcro is adhered to the lampbase. Am I right here? That might be a "cheesy factor" that negates the purchase.

Daily Com: Your right about your's being brighter. The handle bar mount is 10W BUT the helmet mount is 13W. Kinda strange I think? Maybe leftovers?

I haven't noticed excessive heat with mine, but I don't put more juice into them than I'm supposed to. As to the helmet mounted light, unless it has changed, it has a velcro mount. It may be irrational, but I just don't trust that.
