Bike season is drawing near.


And with it comes some difficulties, like navigating dark roads ... So I figured I'd solve it with LED's..
2x5W power LED's in a box with optics, batteries and a simple resistor setup to limit the current flow.
A simple on/off switch is placed up on the handlebars, I should probably change this to a high/low setting later on.


This is the lighting at around 7.25W, still some way to go to maximum and I have plenty of flow, I do plan on changing one of the lenses to something with a better throw, that way I can get both angle and length on the beam.


Peace out.
