    Default replacement battery for LM HID

    I got a VERY sweet deal on a Light & Motion ARC HID however i am told that the light does not run for much over an hour, so i am looking into options so that it frees up the bottle cage. also its the older version with the water bottle battery. Keep in mind i dont need 3 hour runtime like the lithium ion packs. I gues once i get it, hopefully by thursday next week, it will be on my bike i am getting tomorrow.

    Beyond buying a new battery from L&M, it's probably going to be a custom battery you'll need to make.

    My NIMH L&M Arc has a runtime of about 3 hours, if it's the same connector then I'd say just get the NIMH as it's probably cheaper and your able to mount it underneath the top tube as well.

    Nope, considerably different. I didn't realize the battery itself was so expensive, though L&M does currently have a deal on for their batteries. http://www.bikelights.com/Store/inde...2c6ot4tecgnr16

    I guess i might just use the water bottle battery for a bit, like i said before, i dont need 3 hours of runtime, I still would like to locate an extra bulb for it/ where can i get that? For $57 its a steal for a complete HID system
