NiteRider dead?
I was getting ready to leave a friend's house last night on my bike, and when I plugged my battery pack into my (two year old) NiteLight it flashed on then went dead.
Is the bulb on this thing dead? Is this a common occurance? Do I need to replace the bulb, or the whole enchilada?
Thanks.

probably just a bulb. Do you know anyone that has another system that you can check to see if your battery is still good? That's what I did when my bulb died!

Was the battery charged recently? Is it dead?
Could be filament failure in the bulb if it hasn't been used in 2 years.
