It's like a car headlight - has a low beam with a cutoff at the horizon, and a high beam with no cutoff that lights up treetops and everything.

Self-contained, lith-ion batteries, with the option to add an external battery via the usb port (it specifically is designed to allow it to be powered via an external battery).

1200 lumens on high beam / high mode.

Wow this thing looks excellent albeit pricey. Finally a powerful battery powered light that mat be even better designed than the dyno lights. Pity I just missed this for my Christmas list! I do have a birthday approaching however!
