Yes I tried one out a couple of years ago and even though the battery is very small, it's amazing how annoying having the cable going from your waist to your helmet is when you've got used to having everything mounted on your helmet.

It's trivially easy to shorten the cable and helmet mount the Chinese battery, which is at least potted in a tough little box - unlike a Sten battery which appears to have just been wrapped in a couple of condoms (new one hopes ) The Chinese lamp also features decent quality mining-grade cable, not bell wire. I'm still puzzled about why the high-end lights all avoid using proper mining-spec cable.
