Yesterday my amber xenon strobe quit working. It served me well for a year and a half. I depended on it to attract attention from the rear even during the daytime.

I had trouble finding a replacement at first, then I remembered this thread. Sure enough, a I found exactly what I was looking for on this website http://www.allelectronics.com/cgi-bi...-3A&type=store. I ordered it by phone and it cost me $8.95. Since they charge $6.00 for shipping, I decided to buy a new 5AH gel cell for $15.00 (the same battery locally is $21.00, so I saved the shipping charge right there.)

I should get my new battery and light in a few days. (I was suprised that the company didn't charge tax, so I paid a total of $29.95.)

My simple set-up still works well for me: one 20W headlight, 12V gel cell, rear xenon strobe and small rotary switch.
