Point is valid - but even so -
Point to ONE bike manufacturer which can come up with something that would deliver 1+hr of useable lighting (not just a "to-be-seen" light) for <$100?
You can use a $20 P7 flashlight with 200+ lumens on medium for 2+ hrs easily. Nothing the major manufacturers make comes close for price.
