For my money Dinotte lights are the best in the business for AR. Extremely light weight with very long burn time. The are bright enough that I was able to use them for a 24 hour mountain bike race with fast single track descents with no problem. My set came with multiple batteries. On one training ride I ran a single battery on high for 7 hours. During the 24 hour race I ran a battery for around 6 hours on high before I had to swap out.
Easy to mount on the bike or helmet. The buttons work well with gloves.
I highly recommend this unit.

Update: I have upgraded my lite set to the 200 lumes units. I have two lites, one on the head and the other on the handbars. Donotte has improved the batterys to have a more substantial housing without adding any real weight. The new lite unit is like the old lite unit, extremely light weight and easy to use. The 200 lumes is brighter then the old unit. As good as my old unit was, this even better. On top of everything else its made in America. Extremely bright and light weight, this is the best lite set up for AR.
I have again upgraded and now have a 600 lume unit as well as the 200 lume. I used this at the Coolest 24 Hour Mountain bike race. As expected, it performed great. The 600 doesn’t burn as long as the 200 of course, but it’s super bright and can be adjusted. Still I got about 6 hours out of the 600 before I swapped out. Still the best lights in the business.
