I actually did use a front light for all my 12 hours, between 8 and 5 years ago (after I had a car pull out without seeing / looking and nearly hit me on the Amersham Road).
I mounted a coin cell flashing light directly under my right pad. It was pretty small so can't have had much drag. A few people commented on how it was noticeable. Support crew liked it.
Funnily enough, I just took it off the bike a couple of nights ago - not been used in years.
