There are a number of battery packs at batteryspace.com that are listed as Trail Tech compatible. Will they work on a Niterider lamp assembly (specifically the Digital Pro 6)?

(I suspect they're not compatible)

They're not compatable, I have both of those systems.
The Trailtech connectors are 2.1mm on the center pin and Night riders are 2.5mm.
You should be able to rig up a short cord to adapt them, or cut off the wrong sized connector and solder on a new connector. Radio Shack should have the proper size. Just make sure the length is compatable.
