Having trouble choosing between these two sets of lights. Not looking for massive illumination, just enough to be seen at night as best as possible.
Cateye EL320 / LD600 set
Cateye EL510 / LD260 set
Near as makes no difference price, so which is best?

Out of those two id say the 320/600 is best.
The front light might not be perfect for what you want. It has a beam and lasts less time than the little flashy type
Something as simple as this pair would do if youre just wanting to be seen. A lot smaller than the 320 front light.

And i use one of these on my helmet, and top marks to it.

Also,id say the 610 is a better light than the 600. Cateye have brought the led's further out so it can be seen from more angles. The light is brighter, lasts twice as long as the 600 and is about 3 quid more.

How about this one;
Cateye EL135
It doesn't appear to be a beam light in the same way the EL320 is, so has more all round visiblity and is quite compact, but still powerful it seems??0 -
I have the 320/600 for my daily commute into and out London and I think they're just right!2011 Yeti ASR5 carbon: http://www.pinkbike.com/photo/5817307/
