night lights for mtb'ing
Discussion
what would people recommend...
budget: less than £90
helmet mount or bar mount - which is better (i know a lot come with adaptors for both)
currently considering magicshine 808e or bikeray 3. seems you can get iro 1000 lumens (although i would question this - probably more like 700 i imagine)
all advice welcome as long as its under £90!

Avoid Ebay for these things - check out deal extreme - I've got one of these : http://www.dealextreme.com/p/mj-808-ha-iii-ssc-p7-...
They are extremely bright and last well enough for a serious nightime excursion. Check out the rest of the site for P7 torches. Mine took about 3 weeks to arrive, so this time of year is a good time to order.

One on the bars and one on the helmet.
They are great!
You need these batteries :

I bought 4 in order to have some spares
This charger works with them:

This is what I use to attach to helmet and bars:

The whole setup is cheap as chips for what you get.
I think the lights are amazing value.
Took about 3 weeks from deal extreme.
