I have a Serafas 150 lumen that I use on my helmet and that sucker is really bright on high power. I use it on low in combination with my IQ Fly 24 and the VO dyno hub which by the way I experience no vibrations from. This combo just works for me really nicely. I did however take a ride in the fog tonight with just the dyno light and had no problems seeing even in the turns. The real benefit of the helmet light is for blasting auto drivers who high beam me. Go with a dyno hub, you won't be disappointed. I procrastinated for a couple years and wish I hadn't. Now night rides are relaxing and I actually get some riding time in the winter months.
