Pulling the wiring back together...yawn! Still a bit more to go to get things all working on common ground instead of common whatever.

Seems I like a witch when it comes to predictions.
Just had a browse to refresh myself on the build, there's alot been done to this ALOT, Hopefully fix the ground woes and you will have a nice spring and summer out of it trouble free.

Crazy how I guessed the top speed even if you went with a different motor,
Took my kuberg out and it's a police magnet, I went 500 feet from my front door on rural back lanes and a highway cop came out of no where and they never go rural as where I live lucky i was by the mountain path I use so he just give a nod as I went where he can't then after a hour I dropped down off the mountain few miles down on opposite side and a traffic cop was sat waiting at bottom of the lane watching cars go past, first time ive ever seen it so that ride didn't go so well but I got home safe plenty of range.
I can't fault it pulls well not to fast top end on up a steep hill though with a slow rolling start it rockets up between 5-30mph a much bigger 125cc bike is needed to beat it, but then a 50cc kids bike will have a higher top speed neither I can lift through my house only the kuberg is silent enough on the mountain for the police not to really give any hastle by looks long as I don't take piss on the roads.

Brilliant light. Excellent beam pattern. No heat buildup. Decent price.

That's very expensive for a not so impressive design.
If you look on AliExpress you get a lot of results including LED lights with built in fans:

SlowCo said:I just don't appreciate the price ($45.- each???) and that they are out of stock at the moment. :wink:
BTW no need to get defensive and trying to justify to yourself overpaying for that "elegant" design you linked to... :lol:
MJSfoto1956 said:BIG THUMBS DOWN: You would stick shitty LED lights in your vehicle and blind on-coming traffic and claim it was a "feature". SMH.
SlowCo said:Oh dear, someone feels hurt...
SlowCo said:Don't worry, your overpriced Chinese LED lights are much better designed and have a calibrated light beam pattern
SlowCo said:Feel better now about your choice?
SlowCo said:You should be because you tested all the shitty ones I linked to and just know you're right.
SlipShod said:And don't worry too much as I just run the standard original light bulb that came with my scooter/moped as it was tested for road use.
SlowCo said::lol:
Now back on topic (sorry eGod for the thread derailment)

Simple rule of thumb: if it has COB cells, it will suck for a headlight. (fine for other kinds of lights, btw)
The real deal are CREEs as you pointed out -- they give the best beam pattern.
