Question Bike Lights Suggestions

Hi,

I am looking for any bike lights (front) suggestions. I had a look at Cat Eye EL110. Does anyone here have used or currently use the Cat Eye EL110. And what do they think of it? Any other recommendations will be good to so I can look them up.

Cheers
Veeral

Are you after a light to be seen (i.e. in night-time traffic with lit roads), or see (dark bike path etc.)?

For the former I have a little Cateye thingy with one LED light in it. I don't know the actual model number.

Smart offer a very good value rechargable light. twin beam 10W+2W, water bottle battery,etc. $130 these are very good value and do a good job at lighting up the road.

for flashing lights Aqua-X micro lights are very popular and effective. they are about the size of your thumb, can be clipped just about anywhere, weigh about 10grams, and are very bright. $16

if you have a tight budget, marwi 3LED lights are the go for $10!

Prices are from www.nemesis.cc
