/r/flashlight here, what lights are you guys using?

Hey r/bicycling

I'm a long time reader of r/bicycling, but i'm also a mod over at r/flashlight. I'm trying to compile a list of peoples favourite flashlights, and i think it would be beneficial to have a section on bike lights too.

So my question is: What front and rear lights are you using?.

If you use more than one, please add them all, Perhaps asterisk (*) the best one. I'll tally them all up, i'll work out the prices, then post the most popular models/prices/details in our new exciting knowledge centre to help the new users.

Our goal is to be a big as possible, and help users find a suitable flashlight for their budget and requirements. Please feel free to post or pm me here for any feedback you might have for the FAQ :)

Stay Safe, Be seen

Henry

TLDR: New FAQ for flashlights, please post your bike lights

EDIT: if its a $5 light or a $500 light, please do post. Once i've got enough responses, i'll work out "cost brackets"

EDIT: if you have the same model, please write "i have this too" or similar, don't just upvote :)
