So I've trolled this thread front to back about 3 times now. It's a wealth of info for sure.

It allowed me to set up my system. I'm using 2 of the chrome optronics lights with 20watt flood MR16's. Coupled with a 7 LED Blazer trailer light for the rear. Its powered off a 7ah SLA battery thats housed in a radio shack project box (padded it with several layers of that non-slide drawer liner). My smart charger said it was at 40% after my 45 minute commute this morning.

Thoughts after installing it all is switches would be nice - currently the system is turned on/off by connecting the computer molex connector off the battery to the rest of the bike. Thinking I'll cut it down to one light with a 35watt energy saver bulb, and move the second light to another bike with the same bulb. Really need spots also, the floods don't put light far enough out and way to much to the sides.
