As with everything, it all depends on what individuals like and the goals of why you are doing what you are doing.
Headlights: I have two very bright lights the P7s (see the thread on the lighting forum) - one on the handlebar and one on my helmet. I like the helmet mount I can direct light to where it is needed.........just what I like. I also like the bike mounted light because it is constant.......I like having both for seeing and for being seen......
Rear light: I use three 5 LED blinkies...........to be seen
though I am weakening on the Dinotte 140L rear light............
I wear tons of reflective gear on my bike and on me......... to be seen.....
You cannot overdo it in my book...........just have to keep track of all the charging systems.........
I am a belts and suspenders type of guy professionally and backpacking and back country skiing.......
