Helmets with integrated lights

[ReverendCounter]

Does anyone have one of these helmets with lights in?

I was wondering how something like this at about £50...

...compares to something like this from Torch at £59 from their indiegogo campaign? Supposed to retail at £150!

Are they just a bit of a novelty? I suppose my point is, there are plenty on ebay at about £150 so this Torch one looks good value at £60. Any thoughts (other than wrong time of year!)?

I'd much rather buy a decent quality helmet, that fits well, is from a manufacturer I've heard of, and has the safety and cooling features I want... and then add small lights, if desired (eg, no point on daytime rides).

I've just added one to the rear as I think it's more important to be spotted early from behind (and my front light means it's hard to miss me from that end!) - a Moon Merak - through the wizardry of an elastic band

I use a MET Trenta, for an extra £20 you can get a clip on light for the adjustment buckle bit (I've got one on mine)

It does a tonne of different patterns and has an auto on-off for different light conditions.
