    bike light beam angle advice

    in brief I'll have two 20watt IRC bulbs at 14.6volts with one bulb running. I'm going to get a 8degree spot but I'm not sure if I should go for a osram 24degree flood or a philips masterline 36degree flood the battery pack is a NiMH pack that should give me about 5ah what would you suggest?

I've got the TL-LD600 I did think about making something from a 190lumen LED but I thought it was a lot of cost involved and I'd struggle to make something which was easy to...

    Bike helmet mounts: ideas, pics, etc.?

    just a thought with mounting lights on that bike. I've heard of people having trouble if they mount the lights on the sides as it can look like car lights that are a long way away How much do you mind modifying the fairing? You could for example fix a small bar (off cut of a shower curton rail)...
