I have been searching the forum for quite some time and am now completely confused.
This is what I hope to do.
Flashlight that I will mount on my helmet with a Two Fish Bike Block. I want this to have better lumination and throw than my Dinotte 200L single mounted on the bar. I commute to work and that takes about 200 hours a week in the dark morning. I would like to see the road better and also be able to flash people (hopefully politely) who may or may not have seen me. I'd like to recharge my flashlight batteries on the weekend and not worry about it on the weekdays.
Stats I'd like in order of importance.
300-400 Lumes
200 hour battery life
good throw
Light weight
easy to change modes while strapped to my head.
Cost less than $60
Upgradeable
Back end that may have some minor illumination (fat chance)
Use RCR123A X2 batteries , 2AA would be nice but as I have seen this isn't likely.
Adaptablility to other functions (camping, hiking, tact, etc...)
