For road use I use a headlamp with a vertical cut off like a car's headlight. Puts the light down on the road where you want it and out of driver's eyes. As a cyclist, pedestrian and driver I never understand why people think blinding oncoming folks is a good thing for safety?
Same goes for rear flashers. At some point the brightness and strobe are so intense it's dangerous. Last thing I want is the guy driving a truck behind me to be blinded by my rear light.
