Thanks, GB. It was tough. I had to be very conservative with battery power for lights.

I'm running a 400 lumen DiNotte on a 2x2 cell lithium ion battery and an 800 lumen DiNotte on a 4x2 (?) cell lithium ion battery. By the time I reached Rt 40 heading home (at about Edgewood) the 400 lumen's battery was dead and the 800's warning light was on.

The DiNotte 140 lumen tail light lasted the entire ride on 4 AA lithium ion batteries that I purchased on Friday.

And, this is just a picture from BiM regarding the ride stats where the numbers above were derived (click the thumbnail picture to see the stats):

I'm taking today off. Wish I had a beer. Alas, there's none in the house. Might have to break into the tequila.
