I've tried everything from NiteSun, to Niterider Halogen and HID. The

weaken, then I end up riding in the dark.

Completely different from my experience. While the older NR stuff /was/
unreliable (except for a lead-acid helmet light that was bullet-proof), my
HID system burns bright as hell for over 4 hours -- and the same goes for
everyone else's that I know.

My worst experiences were with "digital" hardware, so not sure about the
newer stuff with battery life meters and all that jazz. Simple plug in and
switch on works plenty well enough for me.
