Hi,
Done a little searching and am not finding an answer so, with your indulgance, I'd like to just ask:
Can you recommend a light system that puts out enough light to record my evening ride with a GoPro?
I ride my bike on the Coyote Creek trail (San Jose CA) after work. I have a TurboCat 19W helmet light and a 15W wide angle light on the handle bars. (And a 5W with a red gell on the rear.) This is fine for seeing the trail but the bike mounted lights use a big lead acid battery so I've been thinking about an LED alternative to reduce the weight and get a longer burn time.
I often encounter animals on the trail---bobcats, deer, foxes, bats, owls, etc.---and have a couple of GoPros that I use for SCUBA dive videos. Last night I put one on my helmet hoping to get some animal footage over the next few months of night riding. The results were very poor---I'm just not putting out enough light.
Ideas?
