First, thanks for the tips on the Diamond LED replacement for my 3D mag. I'm looking forward to getting that installed.
I ride a bike quite a bit and the best bike light I have currently is a Planet Bike Alias SC. It's a 15 watt "Spectra" halogen light with a "smart circuit" that allows soft start and allows me to choose three brightness levels plus a flash mode. The halogen bulb is an MR11 style bulb.
It's powered by a 6v NiMH 4.5ah rechargeable pack.
Now I'm interested in looking at replacing the halogen bulb with something better, perhaps an LED. I'm not particularly interested in any permanent mods to the light itself at this point. Does anyone have any recommendations for MR11 LED replacements? I'd ideally like the same throw/flood coverage as before, or perhaps better throw with same/better flood, along with greater runtime.
Thanks!
