Yes. 200L (AA battery model). Works fine. Strobe modes are great for getting the attention of drivers entering the road I'm on. I use drop bars, so the only trick is mounting the light so it isn't illuminating just a few feet ahead of me. Depending upon your set up, you may want to get one with a longer power cord so the battery can reach to a backpack or jersey pocket. I have the case attached to the back of the helmet.

There are many threads on Dinotte lights in the electronics forum. You and OP should check there as well. A lot of people like the high-output LED flashlights; I question if the lights are as well made and designed to run for long periods of time; they do not come with Dinotte's support.
