Well.. i'm bolting them up to the chopper right now to find out !
Well.. i'm bolting them up to the chopper right now to find out !
My street is a dead end going to a construction company, and there are no street lights. To me this is pitch dark, i have something called CSNB http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/X-linked_congenital_stationary_night_blindness
Bottom line = I can't see shit without bright light ! :| And canot legally drive a car after sundown.
The halogen bulbs emmit a yellowish light, nice flood, and good spot.. picture is not the greatest as i'm still experimenting with night settings and this camera is not the best for that.
This is aprox 75 ft, no camera flash..

And, Flashlight No.4 !!!
This thing kicks ass !!!!!!!! 8)

And finally, the Ebikes.ca Halogen !
For my eyesight, the white light from the 900 lumen LED works best, but the yellow Halogen also nice.. a combination of these 2 on my bike should be just about right !

I'm waiting for Justin's new Cree XP-G based headlights due out May 15th.
I saw a prototype in the store a few weeks ago. They're slick.
Over 1000 lumens, 7.5 W and operate anywhere from 18V to 100V AC or DC.

Justin makes some seriously nice stuff. 38 Bucks for that 900 lumen flashlight is amazing though! Just have to step down the voltage somehow. I love that it is 18650 powered though genious. (and dangerous)

ES thread about this one. I have one, love it. The mounting approach is convenient as hell for bikes without batteries.

OH, and to be clear about the MagicShine, if you have a battery, don't bother getting the one for $130, there's another on the same site, same unit, minus the battery, for less than $90.

Ypedal, what is the #4 flashlight and how far are you from the fence? It looks the best out of all you listed as well as the dual fro Ebike.ca. Afraid to ask but what did they cost? That's a great comparision, great job! I'm also blind as a bat in the dark, barly handle the twilight hours.

It's this one :
http://www.dealextreme.com/details.dx/sku.16501
The fence is aprox 25ft away.
For 36 $ shipping included, ( but not the battery, so get a charger and a few cells with your order, 10$ for a charger and a few bucks for cells if you don't already have 18650's ).
I've always been into flashlights ( being blind as a bat all my life, have had one on my belt for years.. nothing i have owned until this point compared to this. I ordered the 5 bulb unit already :
