Light and Motion Stella 150 Light (10)
BikeRadar verdict
"Low on power with an awkward switch, but very reliable and long running"
This micro light packs a useful beam and run time for those who know where they’re going. The focused single LED gives workable illumination of anything in the tight beam pattern, but peripheral lighting is very dim.
The Stella 150's targeted performance, low weight and supplied mount and cable make it an obvious choice for helmet use.
The switch is stiff and hard to use on the bars – let alone on your head – but its run time is long enough to keep it on full chat for most rides, and the Stella 200 has more power and longer run times for just £25 more.
Light & Motion have a superb reliability reputation though, so think of the high price-to-output ratio as more of a long-term investment.

User review of Light and Motion Stella 150 Light (10)
Stellas make a great helmet light to supplement a higher output bar mounted light. L&M lights always appear brighter than their paper figures would suggest too and build quality is beautiful. I love my little Stella.

Can we see a pic of what it would look like in the dark? I'm not usually one to complain about these reviews, but we need pic's. A picture worth a thousand words and all that...oh, and I'm looking for a new road light...

User review of Light and Motion Stella 150 Light (10)
Agree its a neat bit of kit, very bright and all the guys I know who have one agree. One problem we have all had: the rubber band that loops round the helmet mount seems to perish just behind the light housing. It needs to be watched, if it snaps then its ride over. £18 to replace, its literally a piece of shaped rubber strip, and mine was less than a year old!
