I want a bolt-on light that would take longer to remove, hence discouraging convenient theft.
The lights that I do know of that are battery powered and mount via bolts are:
Busch & Muller 4D Toplight
Spanninga Ultra
Spanninga Eclipse
Spanninga Vectra
I do not know which of these lights is the brightest and if there may be another well-made light fitting the criteria, i.e. battery powered, bolt-on, etc. All suggestions are appreciated.
Your Super Flashes may not be disappearing because of theft. The mount on the PBSF isn't the most robust and they can slip out of the bracket. I've lost a couple this way and parts of them when they fell apart on the rack. Slip a ziptie around them and that will hold them together and hold them on the bike.
The Busch and Muller is okay but it isn't that bright. Especially when compared to the Planet Bike.
