HID is great if you really need to SEE not just be seen. My Light and Motion ARC and my Sigma Sport wireless didn't like each other. The same light and my Polar s720i are just fine together. I have no explanation.

Truly, if you're thinking about spending some $$ for a light look at the MiNewt. The weight is about the same as a Cateye EL530, puts out incredible amounts of light, but nowhere near the cost of most HID.

If you're considering riding offroad after dark, you need a light that can be helmet-mounted, so take this into consideration if you're looking to spend $$. Again, the MiNewt is the lightest headlamp out there.

I found shopping for lights a huge headache. The manufacturers all use different ways to state watts and LEDS and blah-blah-blah. They expect you to compare apples to oranges.
