From: Antioch, IL

Bikes: Giant Defy Advanced 0, Rivendell- Sam Hillborne, Montague folding bike.

Success! Lights on solid all the way. Finally, enough light to ride comfortably.

Front: Three MR16 LED's 6 5 and 3 Watts. XP8000 battery pack, mounted on a Rivendell "Dave's Rack" LED's mounted in 2" PVC pipe connectors. I used a dremel router bit in a drill press to machine a bit of a lip that the lights fit snugly into, with a bit of silicon caulk holding the lights in.

Rear: 2 Whelen TIR III flashers, I run one solid, and one flashing. 9.6 volt NiCd battery from RC plane. These are so bright that in the dark cars will swing into next lane.
