Tonight I rode around the block on my 29er in the dark. I wore my newly purchased lights: the MJ-880U Magicshine 2200 lumen bike light and MJ-818 tail light.
I could see fine. I hope to use this light to get out in the dark
evenings, riding road, riding trails, or snowshoeing. The cold
temperatures will still be uninviting but I can dress for that.
These lights are designed to attach to a bike: lights on the handlebars and seat post, and battery pack to the frame. But I got the optional helmet mount that has a kind of 2-inch long simulated handlebar. I wanted a light that shined wherever I looked. I put the battery pack in my CamelBak and attached the tail light to a buckle. It all worked well. For snowshoeing or any other non-hemet activity I plan on using my GoPro helmet strap mount with some kind of custom adapter I have yet to make.
