Make sure to buy lights that follow German StVZO regulations if you’re on the road. They’re not necessarily expensive. they have controlled beams with a horizontal cutoff so they don’t blind people, like motor vehicle lights.
Actually I got it on Aliexpress (link). There might be better priced options but I got this one because it comes with an adaptor for GoPro mounts so I could mount it under my bike computer. It’s otherwise much too heavy and large to mount on handlebars.
Feels safer than day riding too with a 2000LM light.
You turn it down when a car approaches right?
Right?
Well my light is angled downwards hopefully it’s not a problem. But I’m not sure if it’s actually brighter than modern car lights.
Would you mind posting a link to your lamp on Amazon?

Based on the link in his other comment, it does have horizontal cutoff
