Some gazing around at a nightride in my county and I saw a lot of solutions for the problem. Some take along lot of spare batteries, some did some overkill on their handlebars and put 3 or 4 lights, some even have super-lights.

Only the last once are satisfactory but they cost too much according to me.

So thats when I started to look around on the net, and I saw that a lot of people think about this in the same way as me.

Here is my version of a really great light.

 

 

1. a supermarket light with quickrelease handlebar-mount which will cost you almost nothing because everyone has tried one yes ? Remark : it has to be big enough to fit the choosen lightbulb !

2. a Dremel work and do-all tool set

3. a halogen lightbulb, preferably with a glass protection.

choose one that throws out the heat in front .

12V 20 W

4. a bulb ceramic fitting

5. a piece of aluminium plate

6. screws that will fix the fitting on the aluminium plate

 

 

1. a battery  with enough breath

12V 3,4 AH

2.  a fuse and fuse holder

3. some electric wires

4. And some connectors by choice to connect battery and lamp.

5. A cool bag to put the battery on you frame
