yep... that's what I use. Niterider HID storm and ARC HID.

one on my helmet and other one on handlebar. both can interchange duties. preference is ARC HID on helmet and HID storm on handle bar. this is due to beam pattern.

HID storm is slightly brighter and has wider beam than ARC HID.
ARC HID has two stages and longer runtime. low is barely dimmer than high beam. tighter beam pattern.

both are very bright.... lights up night for safe riding on streets. coupled with a bright flashing red light for rear. it's really safe riding at night.

So, if you aren't wearing a helmet, is there some other type of headlamp mount available?

look on Niterider web site, they list a headband for HID

Ah, but then we have to pay import duties and handling charges.

not if you purchase used lights in excellent condition.

used lights can be declared at low values vs new in package light cannot.

I've sent out several lights shipped via express mail w/insurance and tracking with no issues.
what ever amount is stated on customs forms has to match insured values.

buyer takes all risk of loss, which is pretty low with express mail w/signiture required.
