Hi There
Lighting, a commuting neccessity, I commute to work most of the year, most of the year it is dark or near dark going one way or the other. I've tried many lighting systems, My experiance has been that you get what you pay for. The system serves two functions, 1. to light your way so that you can avoid road treasures and avoid flat tires. 2. Light you up, so that you can be seen by the moving steel boxes. In my opinion, the concern should be to stay alive, and what price can you put on that. Currently I use a night rider classic plus headlight and a night rider matching tail light that is powered from the same battery, I also use a battery powered cateye blinky light on the rear as a backup, because you cannot see when your tail light isn't working. I have been using this system for the past 2 years and find it to be the best and most dependable by far. I have had motorist thank me for being so visible to them from the rear.
