Well done to ALL posters
It soon became useful and entertaining. There are regular posters, people who add useful info occasionally and plenty more who drop by to watch. That's fine. If you want to add news/comments it's easy to register and become a member.
RULES No personal insults. No swearing.

Deal Extreme are very slow but nice and cheap and about the best place to LED stuff. If you want a very bright cheap torch most of their 18650 torches will out shine most stuff on the road.
Apparently the shape of the beam from a torch may dazzle people coming the other way. See the comments on Karl McKracken's blog.
I think the ones with joints have a tendency to rattle/loosen over time. I've got some high end hand torches, so decided to mount those rather than replace aging cycle lights (and to use them more!), and opted for the Two Fish lock blocks:

These are velcro based and the main disadvantage is that they are at a fixed angle - parallel to the bar or perpendicular to it, so might not suit swept back bars.

I have a SSC P7 LED, which is very bright and cost £50 new. The downside is it takes industrial rechargable batteries which are not standard.
