Well, what did you decide?
I've always run the extra lights, but got Endurance Plus for my touring bike. Between those two, you can definitely detect a difference.
I've never had problems with flats with the extra lights, and now I am going tubeless. The huge advantage of this is that I can use Petey's valve stems that match my hubs.
