Lights of choice for all night riding? A BB200 thing...
It's getting near and me and Mrs Polisherman need to work out what lights she'll use.
I'll have the finest exposure setup obviously
But Mrs PM will probably have to make do with an old C&B seen set and a candle in a jar...
What's your lumenage of choice for ""Adequate enough for a long night"?

I used a single joystick - quite an old one which I recall is 400 lumens or such.

The CandB Seen we have only lasts for a couple of hours. How big is the candle?

What runtime would you need?
I have either a spare Joystick or a spare Diablo - can lend it to you if you need one.
Or have a look at the Exposure seconds sale - might have finished but a few weeks ago they were selling off seconds at good prices

I've used a single Joystick. You aren't going that fast so don't need a second sun.

I use a Joystick on its own. Lowest setting (36hr burn time) is usually enough for climbs and roads. Switch to highest output for downhills.

run on full beam all night.

Thanks Slarge, for a very generous offer. But I've sent some money Exposures way for a new Joystick.
