I run them on my park bike. Helps smooth out some of the high speed harshness at creek a little bit.

Yea v1 had issues , v2 been flawless
6 weeks of walking funny is a little more than an "issue." BTW, your battery wouldn't rub if you didn't jump so high.

I've been browsing the page and considering it as well. Long time Niterider user and still satisfied with what I use it for. But grass is always greener, right?
Long time Light and Motion user and they are hard to beat for bang for buck when they go on sale.
I jumped to the hangover this year and it is impressive but the extra cost is questionable from a value perspective.
I have switched to Lezyne for all of my bar lights:

The Macro Drive 1400+ throws out a powerful 1400 lumens of output through our Tri-Focus Optics, creating an optimized beam pattern for superior visibility on the trail or road. Its waterproof USB-C charging port and 2A+ fast charging capability allows for convenient recharging (cable not...

I mostly got these because of the bigger battery as the L&M are so compact that the battery has a tough time in the cold weather.

Outbound recently mentioned they are working on the Hangover V2 that will have better lumens and better life though no eta yet. Supposedly it will match the runtime of the handlebar light in terms of runtime at full power whereas the existing one will run out before your bar lights do. You still get an hour of the hangover at full blast but would be nice if they are in sync.

That Lezyne looks good. I still have my original Magicshine, but you moved me over to L+M a couple years ago. Now I cannot go back to battery cords.Long time Light and Motion user and they are hard to beat for bang for buck when they go on sale.

$$$ and I have handlebar lights galore.
Realistically once it's dark AND cold I'm not riding.

I love my J5's at low psi - big, soft, and super grippy, but don't like falling or recovery. So I ordered a pair of crap-condition Winter tires. They shipped one, with a packing list saying two. I notified them one was missing, so they sent two more!? Called to clarify that I didn't want extra tires and they said let it ride to see if I get two more, or only one. Crazy, but delivery has updated to today!
Yeah, in addition to being much greener, the grass is much more expensive too. Gotta spend your money on something though.
