I’m looking for a front light “for being seen” that can be mounted under K-Edge mount - GoPro adapter. Not looking for something heavier that illuminates the road ahead (thought I might in future). It has to e rechargeable, USB-C preferably and available in EU. Any suggestions? TIA

I have an older exposure trace. Really nice light for all year round, good day flash that lasts a good while, and in a pinch can be used to illuminate the road(would suggest something brighter for longer rides though).
Only downside is the charger is usb micro on mine, but it has been updated to USB C now.

I don’t know about availability in the EU, but I like this one:

This brand could also be an option:
Lezyne has adapters for their lights, there’s a list of compatible ones: https://ride.lezyne.com/products/1-led-gpad-v104
Would something like this work (just strap it to your handlebars/stem)
Otherwise, i imagine most major manufacturers will have go pro adapters (or third party ones) to adapt.
I used a 3d printed adapter for a cat eye light for a while
A provis/reflective jacket and any low, wide beam light aimed at your chest. (I actually have no idea, but the above is an idea I’ve thought about before. Downside is a light kinda shining in ur eyes…)
The way that high-vis jackets work (apart from being yellow) is that they reflect light right back where it came from, instead of scattering it.
Lighting it up from a different angle might not help as much as you think.
Try holding a jacket and holding a torch at eye level, Vs somewhere else to see what I mean.
