Bike light recommendations (beehaw.org)

Can someone recommend some decent bike lights? I have a front one that attaches with the rubber band type thing that's pretty good except it turns on in my bag every time so it's always dead when I go to use it.

Needs be removable from the bike easily.

I would prefer USB C over micro USB. Or maybe rechargeable AA battery which I already own.

Also the rear light is gonna be attached to milk crate on the back rack.

It's for a city just to be seen so I don't need 7150 lumens.

Thanks!

Lights from igsport are quite good, have type-c charger and a universal mount (like bike conputers, action cameras, etc).

Thanks!. They come with the mount right?

Yes. As well, you can by such a mount everywhere (I bought my ob aliexpress). I can recommend a two-side one for the handlebar: bike computer on the top side and the light on the bottom side, I found such a setup very useful.
