And you never ever have to remember to charge it, or keep track of when it's time to recharge. I used to get 3 trips on a recharge of the NiteRider battery, which over time became 2 1/2 trips - hence the resonance with your comment about "rationing". The worst part of my commute was 1 1/2 miles from the end, where the bike trail goes under the bridges on the GW Parkway, the railroad line and Rt 1. There are lights, but there were several years when they weren't working, and at night under those bridges with rip-rap on one side of a narrow bike path and the guard rail and the Four Mile Run on the other side, it's dark as the inside of your pocket and a certain crash if you misjudge. I dreaded having the light go dim down there, and it happened more than once. I love generator lights. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To post to this group, send email to rbw-owners-bu...@googlegroups.com.
