Default Looking for a good front light...

What is a better light...NiteFLUX 10, Cateye 10 or Vistalight 15?

I plan to start riding at night or early morning, all on good roads but want
good lighting levels as I will be travelling up to 40km/h and I am looking at

• NiteFLUX VisionSTICK 10 Aus$189.00 (Dean Woods)
• VistaLite Nightstick Code 15 Aus$198.00 (Phantom)
• Cat Eye ABS 10 Headlight Aus$189.00 (Phantom)

Any other recommendations are welcome.

The Sigma Sport Mirage X is the best value in watts/$. About $60 for
25 watts (5w and 20w lights). I've used one for the past 3 or 4
winters. It's heavy (SLA battery, starting to wear out at this point)
but a great value and lots of light. I had a NiteRider 10w before
that and 10w is not enough light at 20mph.

Seems like the Sigma Sport might be going out of production.
Performance is out of them but I recently bought a new one on ebay for
$47.

You might consider a NiteRider, such as the Digital Pro 6.
