BL, when are you going international with your lights. Whish i can see the expressions on Light & Motion faces when they see your pics.

Wow, when i left for lunch it was on page 18.

Some people never learn, you dont argue with the experts. Thank You BL, so far you have answered many of my questions without even asking you. sampie2008-06-10 04:51:49

I know, have been following all the lights projects, which i had money for one of those Rev 3's.

Maybe your lights was'nt Bright enough Just joking.

You can plan a route on Google and then upload it, thing is you only gonna follow a line on your 305, where on the 705 you gonna see all the side roads - full map. If its only for training then 305 are fine, if you want to see it all , then the 705.

Only real difference is the colour gps maps on 705. I have the 305 and it gives me all the info i need to know.

I'll just stick to my Sigma EvoX.

Just attached the battery for my light, i dont think i,m gonna get that car battery up to Bergplaas.

Not to good, have to go up few gears training wise. This is one race you HAVE to be fit for.

Ok, i'm withdrawing my light from the light race.

I designed the ultimate mtb light, think its gonna give Brighter Lights a go. https://www.bikehub.co.za/forum_posts.asp?TID=27423&KW=brightestsampie2008-06-06 03:18:31

Sorry BL, but i think its gonna be some competition for you. I'm still saving for one of your lights, they look excellent.sampie2008-06-06 03:07:39

What are we gonna name this beast.

This is not your normal DIY Mtb lights post, i have the real answer. Not Cree or Luxeon are gonna beat this baby. I did a beamshot but all the photos just came out white, all over exposed.Just one problem, need a name for it. Lum. Millions i think Weight. Not to heavy (without battery) Run Time. About 10 min.

Why didnt i think about that.

Last year i was very lucky to win a Edge 305 in the lucky draw at the Trans Baviaans. The thing is the battery now only lasts for about 9 hours and we are looking at 13-14 hours this year. How can i charge or extend the battery during the race. sampie2008-06-05 08:44:45

With that battery runtime and size you can actually mount 2 of the lights.
