It's plastic but the band didn't require a shim to fit the stem tightly.amberwolf said:Nifty. Is that a plastic one, or metal? If plastic, an even more permanent mounting is one of these:
--metal mounting clamp/bracket for older generator-type headlights.
--metal reflector mount that sandwiches in the stem/headset nut/washer stack.

The body is the heat sink. It's metal,ktronik said:can someone tell me if the light body of the light is plastic??

That sounds lame. How long can you leave it on in still air. What happens if you exceed the limit (melts insulation inside, destroys light or melts housing or burn yourself if you touch the light)?Zoot Katz said:I was warned that it's best they not be left on in still air.
I'm just guessing here but it probably just gets too hot to touch.MitchJi said:Hi,

Sorry bad choice of words, I use thermal cut back to a lower light level, yep cut OFF would be bad. @ 30Mph it would run fine, as heaps of cooling, the thermal kick back is in case it gets turned on, by mistake, in still air or your bag...ecodean said:I don't think a temp cut-off would be good at 30mph, maybe it should just automatically dim down some.
