This is a great light for the bars of a bikepacking rig. Light and small, and plenty bright for middle-of-the-night singletrack. I used it when pushing through the Wasatch Front 100 route, and even raced the Vapor Trail 125 with it as my primary light source.
It’s small enough to carry as a backup light in case you don’t make it to your intended campsite, or if things go awry. Only downside is that for a long tour you’d need to carry a charger since it’s an internal battery, but for a few days out, it’s perfect.
