There really is a FENIX craze going on - a bunch of online places had sold out of 'em already last week. I'm not enough of an expert like the true electronic forums guys to say which is the real best, but enough of those guys are swearing by it that I had to get one to try it.

It really is impressive. It's tiny, light, built well, and throws TONS of light. It's so small that I now use it when I'm running at night as well strapped to my head.

I was hoping people had good experiences with the Twofish lockblock, and it sounds exactly like what I'd use it for - easy on/off from the bike after a commute. I think the main complaint with the Fenix is runtime, which is a little over an hour in turbo mode, but for my commute, that'll work fine. I was going to go with a dedicated bike light setup, but the Fenixes just seem so flexible - if you've got two, you can go helmet/bar, or bar/bar, or one or none. And AA batteries!

As you can see, I'm a fan. There's a great website by a dedicated user than shows all the nitty gritty as well (see electronic forums for the link) - I think that guy should get a commission - that website probably has singlehandedly sold HUNDREDS of those flashlights! (It's an excellent website.)
