Three super high power Luxeon Star LEDs:
• Lasts 100,000 hours (10 years continuous!)
  
• Easily as bright as a 10 watt halogen bike light, but never turns yellow as the batteries go low.
  
• Lasts about 10 hours at high brightness, using 4 1.2 volt nimh rechargable batteries (batteries not included). You can also use alkaline batteries (1.5 volts/each). If you use 9,000mAh batteries, expect 20 hours of continuous high brightness light. Pure white! No yellowing! No dimming!
  

Other features:
• Constructed of aluminum channel.
  
• Common, inexpensive 'D' cell batteries can be used. But you can also use rechargables or lithium batteries if desired.
  
• Water resistant
  

This is a custom, hand made bike light, made by myself, Wayne Johnson, owner of Elektro Lumens. I spent a lot of time construcing this bike light. It uses three 1 watt Luxeon Stars, three 30mm optics. It is made of alumimun, for excellent heat sinking and durability. There is a lens on front to keep dirt and moisture out and away from the Luxeon Stars.

I made one of these just for fun. But I was absolutely astounded at the light produced. It produces a very narrow (6 degrees), very tight, bright beam of light. You can see way ahead. I think this would be good for night time road racing, as it is seemingly as bright as a car driving light. You just have to see it to believe it.

The batteries are held in a 4 D cell battery holder, and the holder is placed in a bag that hangs on the handlebar post. The wires come up to the light, which has a on/off switch. The light itself measures 1.5" by 6". It weights about 8 ounces.

This light, although big and bulky, is unlike anything on the market available for bike riders today. Imagine a 10 watt bike light that can last up to 20 hours on a set of 4 9,000mAh rechargable nimh batteries! Now you can ride all through the night without having to change batteries even once. And the light is so bright, you will have no trouble at all seeing, even at high speeds.

I did this project out of curiosity, and just for fun. Now it can be yours.

Here is a link to a web page about the revolutionary collimating optics used in this bike light:

Blaster 30mm collimator

Working under much the same principle as a laser collimator, it captures and focuses most of the light from the LED and focuses it to a beam that is about 6 degrees, which easily lights up objects up to 100 feet, and further.
