Niterider Minewt 600

I've been having a Dickens of a time with the Niterider Minewt 600 headlight. For some strange reason, the last two won't hold a charge for love or money. In short, I had to return them. Can anyone recommend a high quality rechargeable headlight that won't break the bank?

I've had no problems with my Minewt 600, but that's probably not a very useful recommendation for you.

↑↑↑This.↑↑↑ I use both NiteRider (a Lumina 650, which is the newer version of your light) and Cygolite (a Trion 1300) and the quality of the Cygolite is noticeably better. Just my experience.

I found Niterider's after sales service fine..

but for a battery light B&M's new Ixon IQ premium Busch & Müller: IXON IQ
puts the light on the road where it belongs , and as others observed .. the distant is lit more than the near field.
I got the older one and saved coin.
