I'm curious - given how cheap LED bike lights have become, what's pushing you to DIY?
I was given some Cree XM-L samples and plan to build a 5x front rack mounted light that I've named 'Here Comes the Sun'. I really enjoy DIY projects, and drool over the thought of a 4,000 lumen beast hanging off the front of my bike.
But for about $90 shipped, the 900 lumen Magicshine mj-808 is tough to pass up.
Though each time I see a great custom build (I'm especially jealous of those with CAD/CAM milling access) I'm looking forward to building my own.
