1 season of year-round commuting does a lot

I re-learned this lesson last night when my helmet light quit because I left it on the bike in the cold while I was at the polls voting.

Where did you find Lithium rechargeables that are the size of AA? my lithium rechargeable are like... single A? B? if there were such a size... definitely bigger than AA. and yes, there's also the 3.7 volt problem.

i have a 4x1.5V (AA size). Can you recommend the best charger and battery package from that web page. The ship world-wide for free, which is really nice for me.
