Like a battery pack and where do you mount yours. On my cheap blinkies, there's a built in clip that simply snaps over a tag on the seat bag or trunk rack. How did you mount yours?
Again, I apologize for asking you to talk me through this.
no this doesn't come with a mount kit...mechBgon has been building this light for the past couple weeks or so. You have to buy your own battery pack (he's using an RC car battery from radio shack) and make a mount of some sort. But anyone with some basic skills and imagination can do this. I already have plans to make my own. I was going to wait till winter, (when I ride during dusk/dark) but on further reflection, I think I'm gonna build one as soon as I can afford the light (probalby next month)
Question for you mechBgon...
I saw in one of your early photo's what looked like 4 wires coming out. You had also said something about a sync wire...so i'm guesing the wires are positive, negitive, sync and switch? did you have to buy a switch to switch between flash mods as well? or how does that work?
Thanks for this find, I can't wait to build mine! :-)
