Hi!

I don't know if you are interested in, but we have been making a diving light from Xenlight components.

Here's some pictures and CAD drawings from the prototype:

Batterys (2x5Ah/12V) and the ballast will be in seperated canister like this.

Here is some shots with Brightstar 21W and some halogen lamps.

I was thinking that I will modify that prototype a little and put it to my bike (with one 5Ah battery), but I heard that's too bright..? :ironic:

Happily the ballast is dimmable so maybe it isn't too shiny in 25W mode. :)

We will see what policemen says about the lamp. They give fines here if you don't have lamp in your bicycle.. And if the lamp is too bright? ;)
