Never done this before so .... trying to get my head around how you actually run additional circuits off your bike battery in terms of where the wires are taken off from and whether you need some kind of junction box or splitter inserted. At the moment my setup will look like this before...

Okey dokes. Let me know if you decide you're through with it (provided it still works lol). ... and on that note, whilst away from my build and waiting for parts from far-off lands, been trying to find proper waterproof "bottles" which might house a driver and decent CREE XML-T6 lamp, just...

If you get a battery from China together with your motor / controller the shipping can be a lot cheaper (well it was when I dummy-quoted it anyway). Add about $50 to the effective cost if you buy it later unless you are lucky. You can check battery weights on BMS website if you buy from them...

:eek: ... Bradley Wiggins watch your back :) ....

Now you tell me :eek: :). Wonder if it works with Speedict ... could remove the straps and mount it in a control box if it ran apps in place of a phone. Only need the Bluetooth and app functionality in order to run Speedict anyway and saves having to be at the mercy of taking your phone...

CHK - Electronic Components. Manufacturing jack plugs, sockets and optical components. Now you just have to find a stockist lol !! Don't worry I'm a pretty fussy git when it comes to connections, grips, brake handles and the like - basically anything I have to handle on a regular basis. I'm...

They're in the rack bag, unfortunately, despite on several occasions being underway and wondering why I forgot to put them on ... With all the winter clobber and superfluous stuff I end up carrying about "just in case" (shell rain jacket etc.) they never seem to be "to hand". By the time I...

These look interesting ... They could run off a 12V circuit serving the charger socket I guess ? ... and wire into a combi-switch. Hmmmm :)

... so you could just blow the driver and achieve what you're looking for ? ;) ... what if the lights stuck on the wrong phase tho' ... is that possible ? :eek: ... benjy, maybe you could spare me your blown driver magicshine for a beam up light :) .. what lm is it ? Old_Dave, I was thinking...

Edit : Just read these threads on another forum - seems like the push-button switch triggers an in-built driver in the lights to scroll through brightnss modes and therefore you'd need to take the lights apart and install a 1-mode driver in place of the ones inside. Then you have the problem of...

It's easy to get waylaid from your concept goals with so many options available and the draw of getting 'more oomph' or range for very little extra cost. Getting the balance right between range and performance versus weight and looks is really hard. 8-pin DIN chassis sockets are very easy to...

Hopefully very close to getting a plan now. I like these lights and the majority of the stuff you've recommended :). Thanks. However, I would like to use these 2 lights as a 'beam up' rather than day-running light set, turned on via handlebar hi-low switch like this (or a combi-switch which...

Had thought of using this as a "high beam" solution to come on in addition to lower powered lighting, mainly because it doesn't have to be switched on via a button and so can be done via handlebar switch. What is it like compared to say a CREE T6 1200lm (apart from likely benefiting from a...

Frank's got a turn-key 48v package which is very neat - give him a call. Would be quick, easy to fit and come with a compact handlebar-mounted LCD display to regulate power modes, cruise control button etc. for a grand to £1,200 depending on battery if you want it all on a plate to fit in an...

So is that an add-on to household insurance or a standalone insurance ?

I guess the Tonaro isn't classified as an unregistered LPM tho' ?

LOVE the look of that stuff. Can think of so many things I could use that to protect. It's just what Cwah needs to coat his bike in (tho' he'd still likely have a rusty cassette and chain as it loses its properties with heavy abrasion or excessive handling) ;) $$$$ in small quantities tho'...

:eek: .. it's definitely a case of wrong place at wrong time if you get grief for stuff from them. If it's insured as a possession, is it only covered for theft from home / workshop ? Opportunistic theft when you're out with it would be tough luck I guess :confused:

:eek: ..... what's going on in your workshed ? .... The Amazing Adventures of Morph - Episode 1 - YouTube :)

Do they do cycle insurance or did you get it insured as a motorbike ?
