hmmmm... let me rephrase that. Best, one piece headlight for under $100.
I was going to use a small flashlight that uses 2x CR123 (3v) batteries with a quick release handlebar mount. I then bought rechargeable batteries and found out that the rechargeable batteries were 3.8v and I smoked the bulb. Since I don't know where to find an appropriate
bulb or a flashlight that will work with this voltage, I am presently SOL. I need something that I can remove quickly when I'm locking my
bike up at the gym or local store, but it has to be real bright with 2hr burn time.
Lofty goals, I know. I'll take suggestions.

If you've already got CR123's, I think the Fenix P3D Q5 flashlight can handle up to 8.4V. A call to Fenix will get you an answer for sure.
www.fenix-store.com I was considering going the CR123 route as well but decided on rechargeable AA's instead for use with a Fenix L2D Q5. An excellent flashlight and a good bike headlight too!
