I am in the process of building myself a single CREE XR-E bike light inside a 1" aluminum tube. I have never owed or used high power 'to see' bike lights (as opposed 'to be seen lights') so I don't have any actual experience. I have a CRS-RS lens (6 degree FWHM) and a CRS-M lens (14 degrees FWHM) an am trying to decide which to use. Anyone have any suggestions as to which might be better for road riding? I plan to use it for commuting as well as recreational night riding.
