I’ve been night riding for a long time, not just for fun, but doing 24/12 hour endurance races where light quality and function can make or break your race. I don’t race anymore but being a light snob is ingrained in who I am and these lights are the best! Worth every penny and more!

Great light- but do note…
I like this light, and the great warranty. I’m glad I got it, it does open up more riding opportunities for me. However, my use case is different from the standard trail use, and there are a couple of caveats that might be worth noting if your intended use is as well.
I got this for riding at night on ROADS for cardio. These days it gets dark at like 430, so I needed something to keep from relying on crappy street lighting. I found that the beam on this light, which is really good, probably only goes out far enough for me to feel particularly safe on the roads that are not well lit up to about 15 mph. My night vision isn’t great, so maybe others could extend that a bit, but if you’re heading out and intending to go 25+ miles per hour in the dark with this light on the roads, I’m not sure it will suffice. Also, it is fairly heavy. At least enough to be noticeable on a helmet. When I mounted it a little bit too far forward on my helmet initially it was somewhat uncomfortable and started to give me a bit of a headache on long rides. Mounted a little bit further up on my head now and It’s still very usable (though you certainly will notice it, especially on a lightweight road cycling helmet).
Overall very happy with my purchase though.

Burns brighter, burns longer
I already had a Hangover light that became my favorite (and main) light for winter riding. The Portal burns an hour longer on adaptive mode, has a brighter output and isn't that much heavier than the hangover. Well worth the price!

Great lamp!
I use it when I ride my Onewheel after dark, which is at 5 on the east coast at this time of year. There are no lights on the path and this lamp provides plenty of light to illuminate the path at speed.

Happy customer
Recently upgraded my helmet light to the Outbound Portal. It is a little bit bigger and a whole lot brighter than the previous edition, also an Outbound helmet light. The evolution of the tech is fantastic and the amount of light the Portal provides is exceptional. I've been using night riding since the 90's and have gone through the various iterations of halogen / HID and now LED's ( TriSun, NIghtRider, DiNotte, MagicShine and now Outbound) These lights are great and well worth the money, as someone quipped a long time ago in the LBS, they are a great investment to let you continue to use your investment... Thanks Outbound!

Great lights
I have both the bar mount and helmet mount—both work as described. Very happy with the purchase
In order to hit the same runtime as Trail Evo, and have higher peak brightness than Hangover we shoved a 5,000 mAH genuine Samsung 50E 21700 battery cell and wrapped the light around it.
This results in 43% more capacity over our Hangover light, meaning far longer runtimes (up to 2.5 hours on adaptive, a 50% increase over Hangover).
Even brighter!
While more lumens isn't always the answer, we added in some more brightness and increased the beam pattern width over Hangover to provide even more punch down the trail.
New finely tuned optics with 30% larger TIR cones means higher optical efficiency and more peripheral light to help spot the spooky stuff.
Simple User Interface
Few people read instruction manuals, even fewer want to, so we keep our lights dead simple so that you don’t need an advanced degree to remember some complicated button presses get to the mode you want.
Portal’s soft-touch overmolded top shell has a single, large button right in the middle that’s easy to feel through a thick winter glove in the dark, so you don’t have to hunt blindly around on top of your head just to turn it on.
