Summary: neat idea
Comment: Bright little light. I like the idea of the high-mounted light for better visibility, but the helmet mount doesn't fit my helmet very well. I'm a little worried about the durability of the mounting bracket, but it's holding up ok so far. We use this in addition to a regular light mounted on the seatpost for better visibility in intersections where you might be turning your head to look for cross-traffic. Two other things that keep me from giving it a higher rating, the self-leveling doesn't keep it perpendicular to the road, it points down slightly, making it harder to see from a distance and the power button on the back is very easy activate accidentally.

Summary: the best helmet light.
Comment: This is the real deal. Nothing compares to this light. It mounts in the best place on the helmet.

Summary: nice and bright
Comment: I attached this to my helmet for early morning rides to work. It is really bright and the batteries seem to last a long time. The velcro holds it securely in place. Glad I got it.

Summary: Bright, blinky, and up high where it can be seen.
Comment: I live in a big city with lots of cars who arn't looking for me. After a near-miss where I had to throw myself into a controlled fall to avoid being hit by a truck that blew his stop sign and listening to the driver's lame "I didn't see you" excuse, I decided that I NEEDED this light.
As it's helmet-mounted it's up as high as can be and is about eye-level with the drivers behind you. The gimbaled action of the helmet mount keeps the light visable when ascending or decending hills. Also, the motion of the light created when the cyclist is in motion adds to its attention getting properties.
The light has two light patterns: Steady on or a single flash pattern. I wish it had a chasing option, but it doesn't :-(
Overall I love this light and am planning to buy another for my other helmet.

Summary: Bright, Easy to Attach
Comment: I've liked this light very much. The attachment straps worked surprisingly well. The plastic loops which sit atop the bike helmet have a velcro strap fed which adjusts to the size and shape of the helmet mounting slots. Those plastic loops have an opening on their outside edge which I expected would make the mounting flimsy or likely to disconnect. I've been pleasantly surprised that in about 2 weeks of daily commuting to and from work they have not shown any sign of detaching from the bike.
