I can't say I'm overly nostalgic though!</p> <p>@woowoowoo: I don't think the CatEye Halogen was within my range of "affordable" lights. But now I've gone the other way and just coughed-up a ridiculous amount of money for a ridiculously small but ridiculously bright Ay Up. I'm hoping buyer's remorse will dissipate as the winter months encroach…</p> <p>@ChrisS: Ooo! Must see, must see. Of course, if you really want to light your way with a naked flame you can always make your own <a href="http://www.instructables.com/id/Bicycle_Lantern/" rel="nofollow">bicycle lantern</a>.</p> @Grant: Yep, my set was a solid performer on the commute route for some years.
