I want a 3 mode flashlight that is bright and provides me lights in darkness when needed and a daytime blinkie.
Where I need help is sorting all the various P7 parts and pieces out.
This is what I would like to order. Does this sound right to you people, given what I said I need the system to do?

Thanks, your help is very much appreciated.
I think the three mode is more than sufficient, I just purchased a single mode from Wayne at Elektro Lumens. (I also have the fenix Q5) I finally received it last week after an almost three month wait. Wayne seems to be a very nice guy but unable to keep to the promised shipping date. That being said I did receive a very good quality light. If you don't mind waiting and are willing to spent the extra cash it is well worth the wait.
Batteries, you need two, one for the light and one for a back up when the first one dies. Yes you should most definitely get the protected ones, which the ones the linky was to.
Charger, not the one I have but it has been recommended on this forum many times.
Bike mounts, I use the fenix ones, but I am not real happy with them. (Chatter, side to side adjustment all but worthless)
All in all I think the setup you have chosen should work well for you, If you haven't seen the P7 in person you will definitely be pleased. They do live up to all the hype>
