- Comment on I mounted e-bike lights to my non-ebike with a 3D printed USB battery box and rear light mount 2 weeks ago:
Having a single battery and integrated running lights that are always present is convenient compared to having discrete lights on the frame that need seperate charging replacement and need to be brought with you. At least that’s been my experience. Less to charge, less to remember to bring.

Nicely done! I do something like this on my bike too, except it’s just strips of neopixel RGB LEDs on the frame held in place with zip ties driven by a pi pico. As a result I can program different light modes (flash, solid, fade, rainbow party mode, fake police lights etc etc etc) and even turn signals.
Having a single battery means less to charge/replace. It all runs off a USB battery bank and lasts days. My lights also cannot be removed or stolen easily and even if you do what’s the point it’s just a strip of LEDs, it’s all easily replaced even if they do. Having integrated bike lights seems more convenient for me and I don’t have to worry about forgetting my lights when I go out after dark.

Except I’m pretty sure tulaberry and the gamma quadrant is from DS9 not Voyager? Whatever.
