I haven't done anything new on my system in the last couple of weeks. I did open my semi-sealed battery box for the first time to check for moisture after 2-3 weeks including several rainy rides. Nice and dry so I feel pretty good about it.
Ditto. There's nothing like having something drop off or fail while in traffic. After building this light, I have a great appreciation for the reliability of cars. While driving a car, who thinks about lights, unless maybe the bulb is burned out.
Anyway, that's my goal: Think about the riding, technical, and destination. Outside of regular maintenance, rely on the components.
