In reply to Paddlermatt:
I'm not a fan of reactive lighting at the minute. Snow and rain (or reflective striping on clothing) reflect the light making it behave pretty erratically. You can over ride the reactive part and control manually, but then why bother with the reactive part? I can see the application for running and biking a lot more than for mountaineering / winter climbing.
I use either BD polar Icon, or Petzl Myo RXP.
Of the two, I prefer the Icon - more power for better batter life, but heavier and feels faffy if your not used to a seperate battery pack. Also not "smart" so you can't pre-set brightness levels. Hand electronic lock to stop accidental switching on though. Has a red LED function if that is important, but be aware that red light = contours disappear on map making nav a real pain.
Myo RXP is programmable, so you can preset your brightness levels for different modes, and regulation is for a longer period. Less power, and shorter battery life though. Lighter than the Icon.
Neither would be disappointing for you I suspect.
Cheers,
Stuart
