Really, it's the price that gets me. If it makes you feel better and more safe, great, it's good for you. But I'm upset if I have to pay more than $40 for new headlights on my automobile. I know I'm going to fork out more for a quality self-reliant system on my bike, but over 10 times more and costing almost as much as my rig itself? I'm just not that fiscally liberated.
You can replace the bulb for $40 on your car. What about the whole light assembly? The battery? Then compare prices.
