See Where You Look!!!

A helmet mounted light will work better in most conditions due the ability to move your head and have good light. Thers a lot of choices from halogen or HID and battery to sled powered. Gen. if you want to run it from your sled you are most likely looking at halogen 35 or 50 watts. If you want more light
or run with No headlights ck out the single large (30 or 40 watts)HID
You will get pos.results from all the brands, but as most anything you will see a diff.

Thanks

Get a set of cheap driving lights for a car, wire one in to the headlight wiring and use some velcro to attach it to your helmet.
Get a 50w bulb for it if you want it bright.
Cheapest and works well.

Dont forget the super glue, bubble gum and the duct tape!

300 Bucks For A Glorified Driving Light?

Bubble Gum And Duct Tape Sounds Pretty Good After Seeing That Price

Check out some of the mountain bike lights. I'm not talking about commuter lights but the HID night riding lights.

Check out

Cambria
Supergo
Preformance bike
Nightrider
BLT

These lights are meant to fasten right to your helmet or handlebars

Night riding rocks if your prepared.

Cheers

I heard the hid require a battery and can't attach to the sled wiring unless it has electric start and a battery

Look again I think you missed something.
The lights that run off the sled are much less expensive. The price is mostly in the batteries... Quality cost $ Make your own or buy a cheep model,
either way get out and ride at night. If you are a night rider, a helmet mounted light is the biggest performance enhancer youll find.
If you think were expensive look at the low powered HID bicycle lights referred to above. Less light and far more$
True you do need dc power and a battery to run HID lights from your sled

My wife and i both have the trail tech setups and they are awesome!!!! Halogen lights cant even compare to HIDs.....its worth the extra money!!!

Sorry but I work for a living and have kids that are in the sport also. Gets expensive real quick.

Knock it all you want but mine cost me less than $20 not $120 for your stator powered light.

What He said...been using a LEADDOG for two seasons now and they are awsome...... bright and very user friendly...

I started out with a Lead Dog and switched to a Cyclops. I like the Cyclops better - I think it's made tougher and I didn't like that it illuminated a red tail light on my head.

Have been using Lead Dog's for 6 years. Best helmet light money can buy!
