Search the forum for DX light. They do a helmet version. More than twice as bright as a Vision 2 for 50 notes.

I'm just back from my first ride with the Exposure Diablo, which I upgraded to from the 1st generation joystick - very impressed indeed. The brightest mode is fantastic (but has a short run time), the normal mode is significantly brighter than the old joystick and is perfect for my needs...
PS - a stunningly nice night at Glentress tonight and lots of crunchy trails 🙂
hope vision 2 mum 480 lumens merlin website just buy it xD
switching between my USE Exposure Enduro maxx (£250 odd quid and state of the art a year ago) and my DX light as above (£50 quid or something similar) reveals little difference- the DX may be slightly brighter. My eyes are bad enough that technicalities like beam patterns don't register.
Go with the DX. If oyu don't like it, somebody'll pay you pretty much what it cost you for it anyway.
