    Hi Virgil, Thanks for your concern of safety... This vehicle is not going to be on the road, so, the safety of other driver's vision will not be needed in this case. So I suppose I didn't give enough insight. I want as much light as possible to see when driving down trails without external...

    I would rather not say as I believe the source is very reputable. And is a big member of this forum. I can say not from UK or US. That should narrow it down. By no means am I wanting to tarnish his services.

    maglite mod help

    No camera atm. I get sparks when connecting the maglite battery cap. The driver is a multi mode driver so it gets constant power. I am not sure what position the driver is (on or off) I don't know how to tell without the LED's lighting up.
