Yes this is a blatent plug and I will send a drink or 2 to the management
This is a CNC`d housing for the perfect helmet light or bar light
there is even a discount for the leds optics and Maxflex at Cutters
for more info ask
and if you dont want to do it yourself then I will do it for you at a small cost

very small but very powerfull and will probably use your existing battery
How much it is, for you make me one?
Very nice...
What kind of price and what output?
How does it mount and will it work on, say, a 6 of diamonds?
Mmm that is nice. I wish I had a CNC machine!
Rudeboy
If you are serious mail me
the housing is £ 50 plus pp
the led kit from cutters is 120 aus dollars +pp or £53.66 today +pp
you then need a switch and power conector
output on full is 1164 lumens with R2 leds
and with the soon available R3s 1326 lumens these are of course max ammounts
it mounts to the helmet with a simple velcro strap or to the bars with most clamps you just need to drill a hole and bolt it on
6 of diamonds Dont know lost that out the pack
will you not need sunglasses to use all 1326 lumens?
Beautiful but you are a lumen whore and you know it
PS I own a previous Trout light and cannot recomend it highly enough near indestructable and still going strong. He even answers your querries when you admit you cant even wire a plug in properly!!!
trout - mail me please
thats pretty funky, any pics of it lighting up a trail at night?
piedi di formaggio - MemberHow does it mount and will it work on, say, a 6 of diamonds?
well played - the deceptively subtle buildup meant the latter part caught me off guard, causing an embarrassing desk-based laugh concealment 😆
how hot will that be running when on full

here is a heat test time lapse sequence

pretty impressive, so is it going to melt my head, or even worse...my helmet 😯
Nope it will not melt you or your helmet it will dim to a lower power level
if it gets too warm

trout - mail me please
watch out trout!! "the man" is after you 😆
very lovely looking light sir, can it take P7 emitters? where does the cable run? any chance of a toggle switch on the back? oh and do you do soapdishes? 😀
Are you seriously offering to build them, or have i read that wrong?
If so i would be very interested.
And its made in the UK 8)
Personally I cant understand why a bikelight company hasn't snapped you up yet MrT
Trout, sir, that is a fantastic piece of work. I'm most impressed, and I'm trying to work out how I can afford one at the mo', as I've rather committed to a pair of forks from classifieds. I'll keep a bookmark of this thread and get in touch later.
yes please mr Trout..mail in profile
That is a lovely thing and I'm also interested - email addy in profile. I'd need the option for dummies of getting a built one. Would it run from a 14.4V Li-ion battery?
Mr Nutt
I hope so .
no it wont take p7s they are so yesterday 🙂
XPE is the future , cable is where ever you want , and switch is also whatever you want . it is diy after all . and yes you can have a matching soapdish.
swiftacular.
the original idea was just the housings for the diy builders
but as I am an underworked floor layer at the moment then a few quid is better than nowt so yep i will build some up , the list is a bit long and i am going to be a bit busy in the freezing garage.
Smudge I agree totally .
Count zero
no problems it could be a while before I catch up with the back log now. 😀
kaiser
does that mean you want one too
richcc
14.4 battery is the perfect one for this light
12 v will still work
so will 7.2
Is there a handlebar mounting option? If so add me to the list please.
That light is awesome. Trout YGM!!
Trout, drop me a line if you'd like me to put you in touch with a first rate (CNC) engineering company?!
That's very impressive good work.
Well trout, youll have to mail me when you know more details then
Cheers
Phil/Swift
Nice work Trout... Now much for a full setup, head unit, battery and charger?
Cant you put it all into one tidy unit ala Exposure Lights 😀 And can you make it smell of candyfloss as well 😉
Would be interested to see a 'full build' before I go and buy a MAXX D this week.

Matt
Pink
That would be defeating the object have you tried an integrated battery light combo on your lid .
yes it does smell of candyflos if you want it to .
anyone in west yorkshire can pop in and have a look at one built and working.
thanks all who have emailed me . I will get back to you but it has gone a bit crazy in my inbox so just bear with me
Really not bothered about it on my lid, dont see the point. 720 lumens on the bars makes a headlight pretty worthless. 1000 lumens plus and it really isnt worth it bar for fixing punctures!
Just want to get away from the wires is all, fed up of them 🙁
Nice work though fella
Matt
anyone in west yorkshire can pop in and have a look at one built and working.
But remember youre sunglasses! he had his whole combo on last time i popped in to see him and my retinas haven't recovered yet 🙂
Actually MrT have you thought about outside light replacements for the power zapping halogen security lights?
details please!
Likewise interested in price for the dummies option please
yep.. details/ prices
I want one of these (about to buy an ayup for the helmet tonight but think i'll hold off)
Looking good Mr T...I might have to get you to build on up for me too 😀
Yeh, ive heard about your soldering skills deesta 😉
Thanks guys for your interest.
and to clarify it all
diy
the cnc housing on its own is £50 .00
the leds / optics / maxflex is £60 from cutters
you then need a switch & power socket £ 10
you need to be able to solder to a board .
and drill holes in aluminium
If you want one built up it would be £165 + pp
and here is the hard bit money up front.
batteries and chargers to suit can be got at a good price from
Smudge at Smudgemtbuk@aol.com
those'll be shedfire branded before too long, mark my words.
What kind of runtime will these get out of a decent battery?
swiftacular
a normal 14.4v li ion 4.8ah and if you were daft enough to want full power the whole ride then you would be getting approx 4h30mins
