Oval / Oblong LED sub lenses and optics?
Do anyone use them on bike lights?
Are sub lenses any god on 3 LED optics?
Is there any shots on an oval beam on the web?

I used elliptical lenses on my first attempt - aligned vertically. I was blinding cyclists coming the other way. Using it for wide instead, I wasn't pleased with the throw, it seemed too much light was going off to the side. Two spot lenses give me enough spill to the side for road riding.

That’s what I used; Luxeon Fraen 10 X 20 and I found it perfect for use on my bicycle.
I found a stepper motor capable of providing 12-volts @ 1000mA with less drag than my cheap bottle dynamo. Now all I need to do is figure out how to mount and drive it from a wheel. More info here…
