Is this one of those: when you see it you'll sht bricks? Just kidding, I bought a second lamp, hopefully my night rides will get better because I was quite disgusted with them lately.
More like the next day you see what you rode and shit bricks! Two lamps is a good idea. If one lite fails you can still ride I have not done it my self but Magic shine sells very powerful lights dirrect from China. For 30$!!!! I got my 500 lumen lite from MEC for 50$ Good lites are coming down in price.
My problem is that most of those "super powerful" lights using many LEDs are "wasting" too much power on periphery. The hotbeam is too spread. The result is that I prefer the cheapest Magicshine 808 with 900lm over 1600lm MJ872 because it lits further and harder. Sure broad stuff is cool when you are not sure what is coming under your front wheel, but it is way worse to not be able to see stuff until it's too close when riding fast enough.
So you are way ahead of me in having afordable yet bright lighting.
My 250 lumen light throws a very tight circle perhaps 60 cm in diameter at about 10 meters. Perfect for scanning the trail ahead of me. The 500 lumen makes a flood about 2 meters in diameter.
