I like to ride my trike late in the evening--often after sunset.
To do so safely, I need GOOD lights!

I looked at various bicycle lighting systems available and found them all to be lacking in one way or another--mainly lacking in power & illumination! So, being something of a techno-geek kinda guy anyway, I decided to build my own system. I found this website - Starlight 78 Bicycle Lighting System - to be of tremendous help in sourcing parts and designing a working lighting system.
