To mount it, I simply looped a radiator hose clamp around the mount from an old XMart light. Took four minutes and now it's the most solid component on my whole bike.
PS: Great comeback, Dorf!
I use one of those lights with Eneloop rechargeable AAA batteries and a Twofish handlebar light holder. Mine has worked for about a year with no problems and I have a couple more as backup. The Eneloops last longer than alkalines and provide more light intensity with about 2 hours of continous illumination before it gets too dim to use as a headlight. I run the Harbor Freight light in tandem with a blinking front LED light.
