If some of you may want to divorce your lights from the charging system or even pick up some auxillary long throw or side spill lights running on rechargeables; you may want to keep a close eye out for the LED flashlights now hitting the market. The runtimes are not 'all night long' obviously; yet you pick up some versatality; mounts are easily attainable (or fabbable) and the output on these things is pretty darn impressive. The Cree Q5 and Rebel emitters seem to be the most advanced or widely availiable right now; with the 'R' bins just being released. If you really want to spend some time being 'mindboggled' by what industry is coming up with in all phases of lighting today...check out this site for everything that that you ever wanted to know about LEDS, HIDS, etc. and for some great tutorials about batteries/chargers in general.

Probably my favorite new light is the first product from these guys now on their way to Plano, TX for further distribution:
ZebraLight, High Performance LED Lighting
They have better 'throw' lights in CR123 and 18650 rechargeable lithium-ions now in development; yet I've not found a better pure flood light for everyday use and carry (accessories incl.). Obviously, LEDs of all types will soon be less expensive (for
outrageously cheap lights see
http://www.kaidomain.com/WEBUI/SubCa...%20Flashlights and
DealExtreme: Cree Lights ) but if you want a light for working on the Rzr (or anywhere else) that you will soon forget is even there...give these new LEDs a try and wonder how you ever got by before without them.
