I hesitate to say this but there is another reason to go with the dyno/led: Batteries, even rechargeable ones, have a VERY limited lifespan before you toss them or recycle them (which still ends up with some nasty waste being housed) So if only from a controlling waste standpoint the dyno/led combo are a better idea. -sv -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
