Please recommend a light set

Hi,

I am looking for a light set for my bike. I may occasionally ride in the night so looking for a decent light set. After doing some research i found the below for 55 dollars in probikekit. Please let know your views on this or please recommend if there are any better ones in this price range.

LEZYNE HECTO DRIVE 500XL/STRIP LIGHT SET

Thanks
