From: between the Popeye's, the liquor store, the funeral home, and the strip club

Bikes: 1992 Miyata Nine 14; 1971 Raleigh Super Course fixie conversion; 2006 Jamis Nova (853 version); 2001 Diamondback Topanga (SS conversion); 1956 Rudge Sports; 1971 Raleigh Competition (processing); 199? Schwinn World Sport (processing)

Powerhouse--I've seen the movie of the Nova Bull--That really is an insanely bright rear blinkie. Don't know if it's clippable, though.

for my project, I'm getting down to soldering, and I ordered a 14.4v 5Ah pack of C cells from batteryspace to run my overvoltaged 35w project. I will post some pics very soon. When y'all say "overvoltaged 35w is rough on the AA batteries", this means ??? They drain pretty fast and get warm, okay, but does this just mean they will die faster? Or, will they light up the night in a large ball of flame?

Stupid question: is it not adviseable to throw in some variously charged odd batteries laying about the house on top of my bike light battery pack (not exceeding the smart charger's max capacity).
