Boss VS Sunspot?

I'm going to buy one next week. I've used the Boss and loved it, especially the Cateye. I'm curious as to what ya'll recommend?

Sun spot is the best light I've used. The guy that is selling them is honest and backs up what he says.

I use the boss 21v 5 led light and like it, the only thing I don't like is that there is not much variance in brightness from the wide open setting and the rest. It goes from really dim to super bright, not much in between. But that sucker is bright!

Anybody else? Also, I'm talking about the Boss cap light.

I use a Boss 5led cap light with a cats eye in green. I love the light the only problem with it is the rivets in the light braket getting loose and the cord over the hat pushes the head down a little. I fixed this with a simple wooden wedge behind the head in the bracket.

The Boss head is made to last I think you will like the cap light. If you can see to walk with the Cats eye it will give you a long brun time.

I have the 6 click, with the exception of the brightest setting, there isn't a whole lot of difference in the other settings. There is some, but I would like to see the 4th and 5th clicks just a little brighter. I still love the light though.

I had the same question about a month ago and decided to go with the boss and I can comfortably say ive not been disappointed at all. Comfortable lightweight and very bright
