  1. I have (OK, my wife has) a Light and Motion Commuter lamp (I'll add here
    that I'm very impressed with the thing, both its output and its durability -
    which got tested a little further than I'd have liked).

    Friday, some local kids who seem to come and use part of the University as a
    skateboard park found it necessary to remove the lamp off her bars, and kick
    it around. The upshot is that looking around in daylight the next day, we
    found just about all the bits of it except the bulb.

    Anyone know what kind of bulb this is? I can go get one from a local
    electric parts place rather than waiting a week for delivery from California
    then. 7.2v 10W halogen with legs is about all I know right now. Radio
    Shack had a 12v20w Halogen that doesn't fit through the reflector, but at
    least allowed a quick test to show it was working.

    If anyone else has one - maybe you can tell me if there's anything to the
    lamp besides a rubber coated cap with threads, the front lens that fits in
    it, the reflector and the bulb that sits in two holes in the lamp body?
    Without the bulb the lens rattles in the cap, but the reflector should push
    against it with a bulb, unless there's an o-ring or spring too.

    Thanks.
