"So if you are looking for a headlight that will give you a little more than a standard headlight they do make a little bit brighter ones. A lot of people use them for mountain biking. The general thing about a mountain biking headlight is that you are going to be shining a path so you can see where you are going whereas with a regular light you are going to be using it for just kind of being seen and not being hit by any moving traffic. Essentially they are just going to be mounted right on the handlebars like this. They come with a nice little battery and you can stick that back in your jersey pocket or even a bag if you had that so they are pretty nice. They do make some that are a little bit more brighter than the others. The thing about these headlights are that they are going to be a little bit more than your standard headlight, usually they will range from about $80 and they can go from abut $350 to $400 if you want to spend money on a really expensive light so if you are looking for a little bit brighter headlight that would be the way to go."
