OK, that's it!!
I'm sick and tired of the dismal quality of the red, 5mm LED, tail light blinkers available for bikes. There must be something brighter and of better quality out there.
Since usually my wild dreams require custom solutions (which have slim chances of being completed by me, but I do trust somebody else will take off runing with the idea), I'm posting here.
This is my ideal bike taillight:
:thanks:

This is my ideal bike taillight:
- 3-5 red Luxes: 3 pointing directly back and 2 pointing sideways (or a at 45-60º from the other 3), or 1 pointing back and 2 sideways.
- 2 modes: on/blinking/"chase" mode - none of those silly 7 mode lights that do nothing but annoy me when I have to cycle through all of them 3 times to turn the light off... :hairpull:
- waterproof to 1m
- appropriate heatsinking (which may require fins and/or a metal casing), since we're talking Luxeons here
- simple battery options - since I'm a geek, 123's will do, thankyouverymuch, but I don't mind AA's (no AAA's or external)
- small
- with a secure attachment system
:thanks:
