reason why I read MMM. Great fucking comments! Though I must say, I've never seen a commenter so thoroughly rise to a direct challenge from the master himself. :-) These '1000 lumen' cheap-ass lights from DealExtreme are looking better and better. My only fear (based on the other comments) is their longevity. I know they're cheap as balls, but I'd rather not be generating that type of waste on a regular basis just to replace them. Also, would it be simple to mount one of those to a helmet? Clearly I could use tape, but I was dreaming of something a bit more intentional and removable. I've heard of some people have issues with longevity, but no issues here. I use them nearly everyday including in the rain and snow and have yet to have any issues. Surprisingly, after an estimated 200 charges and discharges, the batteries seem to be holding up well too. I bought a 20 ft roll of velcro strapping at a second hand store that I use for strapping a light to my helmet through the vent holes. It also works well as a pantleg strap to keep your pants out of the chain. I just cut a 1 or 2 foot piece off the roll as needed. If you do end up ordering anything from deal extreme, plan on it taking for fucking ever to get here from china. Both times i ordered anything from there it took about a month. OK, now we're talkin'.
