Howdy! I found a Malibu 12v outdoor light as dicussed at various times throughout this thread. It was $8 at Home Depot. I now have the light, battery, wire, some connectors, but have a few questions, concerns stopping me from proceeding with installation:

1. Could anyone post some photos of how they attached the malibu to their handlebars? I have a few ideas on how I want to proceed but they involve considerable fabrication and a heavy, bulky reflector bracket jabbing out a ways from the bar. Photos are best since I'm a visual guy. It's not that I only read magazines for the pictures, it's just easier for me to copy your ideas! Ha! there I said it. It's out in the open.

2. Regarding battery chargers... The local Radio Shack didn't have any lead acid chargers with the "charging" and "charged" lights which will switch to trickle charge mode when the battery is fully charged. One of the guys said to just buy a 12v 500mA AC adapter. Claimed that it would charge the battery safely and then work as a trickle charger afterwards with no need to time the charge and disconnect the battery from the charger. I'm skeptical.

I know people are very involved in this thread, I've been following it for some time. But please don't try and convince me to ditch my current plans and start over from scratch with a different light setup. Got the battery on sale, adapter was on sale (hope it's suitable ) , point of no return need light for commuting at 6am! Oh, if this is to be found somewhere in this, what, 36 page thread, please understand. I have an 8 month old and dial up. My computer time is stretched and my Search the Forums attempts have been fruitless.
