Light service and backup plan
rats, double rats, have Trail Rat 2.0 headlight system that is not keeping a decent charge on battery. rated 1.45 hours and I rarely see 1 hour. Have had the system since July 2008! Called Niterider. They said to send entire system back to them for check up and service. That will be 2+ weeks with out a headlight? I don't think so. I have a helmet light to be seen but it is not adequate for real riding. So I have to make a decision. What light do I get as a backup headlight? I don't want to spend more than $200. I would rather spend less than $200. I commute daily and the road has some very dark sections. Definitely need that light. Suggestions anyone? I will keep the Trail Rat as secondary light if I upgrade.
What to do, what to do?
