I've got a couple AW 18650's sitting idle. Are there any nice lights that use these cells for bicycle use that will not break the bank?
 
I'm using a Fenix TK12 as my headlight. Strobe in the city, turbo on a trail. While it's more of a thrower I find it works really well being super bright.
 
I picked up an Elektrolumens DeCree XP-G in the marketplace for $60 and it is the PERFECT bike light. Massive output with a HUGE hotspot and decent spill. I've got it attatched to my handlebars via a 60mm stem that holds it rock solid and helps act as a heat sink to keep that led burning bright.

I don't know how convenient it would be but that's a cool idea using the stem. I work in a shop and will have to watch for old ones being thrown away.

solarforce l2 all the way buddy
Nice. Looks like a lot of throw only. Will need flood and some spill as well.
The Solarforce L2 is a modular light. The light engine/module is replaceable. Want a floodier beam? Get a ThruNite XP-G drop-in. Want a tighter beam? Get one of the many tight beam drop-ins (Dereelight comes to mind). You should be able to get the light together for about $55.
