On my bar I use a Light & Motion Arc Li-ion HID. It is really nice (but really expensive).
Lithium ion battery
2.5 hours charges to 80%
3.5 hour burn time
675 lumens

On my helmet I use a Light & Motion Cabeza Logic (discontinued).
Nickel metal hydride
14 hour charge time (I have 2 batteries)
2 hour burn time
300 lumens (not nearly as bright)

I bought the Cabeza light for commuting a long time ago. I bought the ARC and the second batter for the Cabeza for 24-hour racing because I needed to be able to do 2 night laps (about an hour each).

Try it. It's a blast! I have two nite-rider setups (old and heavy) that I could loan you if you want to give it a try.
