im after a cheap-ish front light for training during the winter months...

will be in town mainly and 95% under street lighting

not looking to spend loads £30-40 possibly....any suggestions?

also pretty small and re-chargeble preferred (dont wanna spend loads on batteries!)

I've got an app on my phone called 'color flashlight' It may be bright enough without spending any money.

I'd recommend one of these:

They are compact, look nice, rechargeable, give out enough light to ride unlit roads by as long as you aren't going like the clappers (better with two for that), are strong, don't interfere with wireless computers (metal case) and the batteries last for ages (ad says 5 hours but on flashing mode irrc I recharged once a week after 100 miles or so and that just to be on the safe side).

Button is too small to operate with fat gloves and there is no side window on the unit but no other complaints.

I think they are great!

went down the local bike shop, know the guys fairly well and ended up buying one of these...

moon x300

cheaper by miles than what wiggle are doing it for so bonus!

pretty bright, obviously not tried it in the dark, but does a decent job in the day!

usb recharge is a nice bonus too!
