Light setup for 7-8 hours of night riding

Trying to sort out light options for 7-8 hours of night riding.

I have a cateye volt with extra battery. I can run that at 300 lumens for about 7 hours.

I have lezyne super drive 1500XXL. that will cover the 7-8 hours at 250 lumen.

I also have a anker flashlight mounted to my helmet. That’s less important since it’s just there for that little bit of light I need if I’m turning my head to look or turn.

This is a gravel night ride in a forest so no streetlights. And long ride so not going fast so not like I’ll outrun my lights.

does 300 lumens seem enough? Other options? I don’t want to go the dynahub route.
