but you can see by those where there are No Streetlights.
Cat Eye makes quality stuff , too ..
some other "I got an X brand and its great" will follow ,
Just sayin', PB and Nightrider ( US made so pricier) do customer service, good.
Got a computer Job.? then the USB at work can charge the return trip juice.. those are not using Flashlight batteries..
I know a lot of people like the USB charging, but it is nice to have actual batteries that can be swapped out. My furnace died the other day and turned out it needed new cells in the thermostat. Of course, I didn't have the required size in the junk drawer, but I did in one of my lights. Crisis averted
Back on topic- $50 will get you any number of LED lights from Amazon, ebay, and other online sources. If you don't mind lights with remote packs, you could probably get a complete light (head, battery pack, charger) for around $30.
