Madmod bike light

<< < (2/3) > >>

CrewCab:
Nice one, good idea about a machine lamp too

Spen50:
I like that.
A couple would look good as riding lights on a motorcycle  :thumbup:

How are you holding the lamp into the holder?

Bernd:
Nice mod there Shred.

Couldn't figure out why you'd hook it to a battery. Then the "light" went on. It's a bicycle, not a motorcycle. :doh:

Guess I'm not awake yet.

Silicone sealant-- used for waterproofing and shock absorbing and it's not hard to pick out when the bulb needs replacing.  I thought about a bulb-closer over the front but decided not to bother this time around.

FWIW the MR-16 bulb is reported to be more efficient and can be had in up to 50w sizes-- it's about 2" across vs 1-3/8 (the MR# is the number of eighths of an inch across the bulb is).  I may try turning one into a machine light here in a bit.

Bernd- yeah, it's for my mountain bike.  It's way too hot to ride in the sun these days.

Divided he ad:
Now that's just cool!  :thumbup:



All we need now is a video taken on the bike at night so we can see it's effective light throw and how useful it is when you're hairing down a mountain side  :bugeye:   :lol:






Nice bit of kit  :borg:
