It's competing in the same realm as the Lupine Betty, DiNotte 600L-dual, and Supernova P-99-D. All of them are over the $800 price point and put out an ungodly amount of light. None of them are really suited for road riding, except for this new Big Bang design which meets the StVZO reg's.
For the same price, you can buy a nice wheel with a SON28, and dual Supernova E3's and not have to worry about running out of battery power. (And still have enough photon power to vaporize wildlife and medium sized pedestrians.)
