Is a single P7 as "good" as my NR setup? Is a single p7 sufficient or should I go with 2? Or upgrade straight to the 100lumens?

Option 2
Same battery and charger as above but with this light :

How long do you ride for? The one drawback to these lights is their short runtime.
Also, if someone says they are getting X minutes runtime, don't expect to get the same if you order a light as the specs are known to change from batch to batch.
