What lights are you using on your Watt Wagon? What about helmet lights?

Now that more and more WW bikes are being delivered, I am curious as what lights (those who have them) are using. I am leaning towards a helmet light as I will not ride at night often, and honestly theft is a massive issue in these parts. However, I am open to everything ....

I don't have a model to refer you to but for your situation, one of the rechargeable ones that can be easily removed from the bike probably would be your best bet. There are ones where the bracket stays on the bike and you would remove the light and charge it and/or easily put it in a bag if you have to leave you bike for a period of time.
 
I don’t own a WW but there a plethora of universal lighting options out there. Nothing fancy for me. I have a Cygolite Metro mount attached to my helmet. A handlebar mount came with the light but I find that I don’t use it much on the trail.

I have that magic shine 6000 that Pushkar sent me. The thing is amazing. It’s actually easier to ride at night than during the day.
 
I think that is the one I am getting as well. Originally it was the Supernova but was swapped out for the magicshine. How does the battery pack look attached to the bike? Hopefully not to commuter looking :)
 
I ordered the

ROCKBROS Bike Front Light Rainproof USB Rechargeable Bicycle Light 1000LM Cycling Headlight LED 4800mAh Flashlight MTB Bike Lamp

It also comes with a +Q50 Tail Light.
I`ll only be using the light if I ride to work, so a removable option works best for me.
Here`s the link

Waiting game now continues ....
 
Here's the setup. They sent me an "upgraded" holder. Aluminum. The holder is for the newer type thicker bars. Doesn't fit my older bike. Have to wait until my bike arrives.... whenever that will be.

Photos probably don't do it justice, but it is bright. High setting will definitely irritate anyone caught in its path 🙂

The tail light has 4 settings. This was just the steady light. Multiple holders. Great light!

I just ordered one. Unfortunately, it won't arrive until late August, but there's nothing we can do about shipping these days.
 
Good idea, kwseattle. I just cancelled my order and place another order with Amazon.ca. I'll get it in three days.
 
The light I ordered (link above) came with a "free" Q50 tail light. The same light, but without the accelerometer???? I honestly don`t know if it has the accelerometer or not. Regardless, excellent tail light!
