    Do they make head lites that...

    Check out CandlePower Forums. It is one of the better website that I have found to learn more about lights. I will also add that I don't think lighting is an either/or issue. For example, handlebar vs. helmet light. Having a handlebar light and a helmet light is a great way to go. If you add...

    For Those Of You With Handlebar Mounted Mirrors, One Mirror Or Two?

    I only have a single handlebar mounted mirror on both of my e-bikes. I am giving some thought to adding a second handlebar mounted mirror. For those members here that use handlebar mounted mirrors, do you just one or do you have two mirrors?

    Removeing throttle to be compliant and responsible

    My first e-bike has no throttle. The second one I bought does. It is a fat tire e-bike that I bought for winter. I didn't think I would ever use the throttle, but I find that I do if I am at a busy intersection and want to cross more quickly. Occasionally, I am in a spot where I am slowing...

    Are Some E-Bikes Manufactured In Which The Only Difference Between It Being Type 1 Or Type 3 Is A Setting In the Firmware?

    Reading through the definitions of Type 1 vs Type 3 e-bikes, I am wondering if some are built that are sold as Type 1 or Type 3 and then a change in the firmware switches it?

    Electric scooter trend?

    The electric kick scooters are popular now and it seems like I read more about proposed legislation to e-bikes than I do electric kick scooters.

    My wife and I already have e-bikes. She might be interested in getting an electric scooter, too. Where are some great places to start researching these, in case I do agree to purchase one of those?

    Lights Save Lives

    I joined Candle Power Flashlight Forums in 2002. As a result I have learned a bit more about flashlights and batteries. I eventually bought my first 18650 flashlight. Battery technology in the 18650 cells aren't particularly well known by the general public, but I really like having the ability...

    Lights Save Lives

    I agree. I bought a Fenix BC30 V2.0 LED bike light a two years ago. I like that I can easily swap out the 18650 batteries. I have two e-bikes. My Gazelle has an integrated headlight and taillight, so the Fenix light is often on my Rambo. I will strobe in the daytime and often run a steady...

It is in Amish country and not long after beginning our ride there were some buggies parked off the trail. Coincidentally, it was the Minnesota fishing season opener and a number of Amish were fishing...

    Cygolite Hypershot 350 On-Off Switch

    I have a Cygolite Hypershot 350. Lately, the switch has been difficult to turn on and off. The battery is charges and eventually it will come on, but at the end of a ride, I have difficulty turning it off. I suspect that it may be dirty inside. I have tried using compressed air like used on...
