I generally only use the 800 on full for fast downhills, otherwise I conserve battery life by using it at 50% and that is generally plenty of light.rick is!https://www.blogger.com/profile/02039540336782835088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5082954078864845206.post-86181096797371004162011-10-31T14:07:03.624-04:002011-10-31T14:07:03.624-04:00Riding super technical stuff at night will make yo...Riding super technical stuff at night will make you a lumen junkie. I've hit my head way too much in the past, and this is easy insurance.<br /><br />I run my 1200 on full; cold nights do get me to the 20% warning quicker than I expect, but I manage it thereafter and get out alive. I'll probably buy another 4-cell. The weight really doesn't bother me; at night I'm already cphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12551053732786141141noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5082954078864845206.post-37683128543290501472011-10-28T08:53:04.845-04:002011-10-28T08:53:04.845-04:00How much you need is pretty subjective. I used to ...How much you need is pretty subjective. I used to think 500 lumens from my HID was more than enough. I suspect I will run the XML-3 at the half power setting, which should still be brighter than my old HID, to get 5+hrs run time. The XML-3 weighs 355g, the HID 980g. More lumens, longer run time, and much less weight. I think of it more as having lots of margin.

I've been using a set of Ay-Up lights for 2 years and their 400 lumen lightset seems more than adequate for on and off road. Going much more beyond that and it seems like you're sacrificing weight or runtime for something you don't need.SteveShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16141801461336760024noreply@blogger.com
