    Rechargeable or battery lights - ?

    I bought a rechargeable front lamp from Maplin about five years ago and the life of the battery pack is now diminished to the point that even on a full charge mostly flashing, it only lasts four days with a run time of about an hour a day. New, the leaflet claimed a run time on low of 28 hours...

    Running lights with a dynamo

    My front hub was on its last legs (sic) and I found a half decent dynamo hub for what I think was a more than fair price. Having built it into a wheel I now need some lights and my eye has fallen on the box of semi-redundant battery LED lights that are just waiting for a new lease of life...

    QNT Front Lights Relocation

    In anticipation of a fairing arriving in the next few days I needed to relocate my front lights. Had a bit of free time this morning so I manufactured a couple of brackets from some old bits of aluminium tube I had lying around the workshop and an old M10 bolt. They're designed to attach to the...

    Soldering dynamo wiring to LED lights?

    After 3 years of reliable service, the exposed wiring that leads from my front dynamo lamp to the rear (B+M Secula) LED light became brittle and snapped in two. The exposed wiring is really thin copper, I'm surprised it lasted as long as it did! Road vibrations have killed it at last. I had to...

    I have one of those LED lights from China (mounted low enough so as not to melt windscreens) but the cable on the battery is faulty, so I want to chop out the damaged section of cable because it's far too long anyway. However, I can't find the correct socket anywhere. I could change the plug...

    Rear lights position

    With a bag in the back on a rack, where do I put the lights? Got two on the rack bracket but one rattles. Should i put it on the bag? The rack has thin horizontal struts. The bag blocks the seat and seat tube. I'll take a pic
