Both Exposure Lights have three output settings as well as a flash setting. I found the manufacturer claim of 3 hours (MaXx setting), 10 hours (Ride setting), and 24 hours (Low setting) to be a bit conservative; I managed to get between 30 and 60 minutes more in the MaXx setting and 1-2 hours more in the Low setting. Both lights are regulated and have a "reserve fuel tank" feature that automatically turns the lights to low when the battery has only 5% remaining. At this point, the light will dim gradually over a 3 hour period, giving you an extra chance to get home or set up camp. I found it comforting to know that if I pushed the light too far, that there was always a bit extra to get me to camp or the car.
While not my first choice for backpacking, the Enduro MaXx is a fantastic partner to the Joystick MaXx for technical night mountain biking. With the Joystick MaXx on the helmet and the Enduro MaXx on the handlebars, you have a veritable flood of light from the bar and additional lighting that goes wherever your eyes go. The combination is incredible when riding through dense woods, enabling speeds that nearly reach a daytime pace. The Enduro MaXx attaches to the bike handlebar with a quick release that is quite secure but allows the light to be removed with a quick pull of the red release knob.
