Excellent for long rides
For commutes longer than 30 minutes you can get more battery life out of it by running it on a lower setting- the Expilion will run for 3 hours on the 425 lumens setting. If you like to always have a full battery, the Expilion has a swappable 3.7-volt lithium-ion battery, though you'll have to purchase the spare separately.

Con
The mount may be too small for your handlebar
It's supposed to fit all handlebars, but there have been cases where the screw holds it together by just a few links. Be careful if you have an extra thick handlebar.

Great for darker rides
The Cygolite Expilion 850 is one of the brightest light for the price. The highest setting emits 850 lumens of light which is great for roads with no lighting at all like in rural areas or off-road trails. Even on the lower setting it's still bright enough for non-illuminated bike paths.

Has a handy mount that won't require you to re-aim the light each time
The mount on the Expilion 850 clips around the handlebar, and then you slide on the light itself on the stationary mount. That means, you only have to aim the light in the direction of your choice once, and it will maintain it's direction when you come back to it.

Good battery life
On the highest setting (850 lumens) the battery will last for 1.5 hours, and on the flash setting for 22 hours. This is more than enough to get you through the week on one charge.

A great budget option
The Cycle Torch 500 is very bright for the price, and it comes with a tail light (also rechargeable for the new model). The front light reaches far (illuminates street signs up to 4 blocks away), and illuminates the path in a wide angle.

Con
Mounting can be tricky
The rubber mounts are basically straps that hook around the handlebar and hold the headlight in place like a band would. This allows the light to slide forward or backward, especially on bumpy roads. Sometimes, the rubber mount can break, but you can get replacements from their website.

Illuminates the road very well at night
The Cycle Torch is so bright that you might even be concerned about blinding passing pedestrians. It emits 500 lumens on the highest setting. The beam is well angled, so that you can both see in front and to the sides as you're riding, Letting light out on the sides also lets drivers see you better.

Can be used to increase visibility during the day
The Cycle Torch has a flash/daylight mode, which is useful for increasing visibility during the day. The light emits 500 lumens on the flash setting, which makes it so bright that it almost feels like a strobe light.
