New Specialized Flux lights
 

That looks pretty good.

Shaped beam with top cut-off is really the way brighter headlights should be, at least if you don't want to blind/aggravate oncoming traffic (and is required in DE and some other EU countries). Both lights look like really good designs technically, but a bit funky aesthetically, IMO.

I have this on my list to buy this year, but have to budget for it as it is so expensive. Seems like a great product and I like the idea of a high beam switch right at my thumb. I just wish the battery was swappable.

spend 8 hours Well paid to be at a computer, then USB rechargeable while you work seems sensible..

A quickly removed item, they would be nicked if left on the bike locked up outside any way..

They've been out since around December. There are reviews on the Candlepower cycling forum. I'm sort of interested in the headlights but I'm waiting until DST ends before I buy a new headlight.

Thanks for the tip. Here is an excellent review thread.

Crap mounting system and mini-USB port makes this a no-go (the price is a no-go too but not high on my list compared to the crap mounting system and mini-USB).

What's wrong with mini USB?

I kind of like the mounting system as long as they have that loose o-ring problem figured out. I particularly like that they have you just put a level on the face to adjust beam angle too. My biggest gripe is the non-replaceable battery. When it does in the middle of the night you have to stop and charge it or switch lights. That is a major drawback. I just want to hot swap fresh batteries...

No longer compatible with everyone's phone charger, I guess.

Well I guess the good news is the mounting system is patented so nobody will be copying it. As for the mini USB port, boo hoo.
