Do you have a helmet light? If so, how is it mounted? (feddit.online)

It's starting to get dark when I'm heading home, and I'm thinking that I'd like to be more visible. I have a headlight and tail light on my bike, but I'd like one that's a little higher up as well.

I'm finding a lot of headlamps that work with a GoPro mount, but my helmet does not have one of those. It also doesn't have an easy spot to stick an adhesive GoPro mount to, but I found this video where a guy uses a silicone adhesive to stick one on: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLpKEc-_AQs. I'm wondering if I should try that, or just buy a new helmet with a built-in GoPro mount.

Does anyone here have a helmet headlight that you like? And, how is it attached?

You just wear it on your head? Or does it go around the helmet somehow? (Or, do you not have a helmet on?) I'm having a hard time seeing how I could fit a headlamp on with my helmet at the same time, but if I could make that work that would be very convenient.

    I adjust the strap to go around the helmet. It works well and the lamp can be adjusted to shine more down or up.

    Been using headlamps in this manner for a couple years and finally upgraded to this one because of quality.
