  1. Hello everyone,

    for some time now I was searching for a cheap, lightweight, easy to use and a perfect fit "helmet mounted LED flashlight".

    While searching I found this and that, browsed through pictures and forums but could not quite get to what I was searching for. In the end I decided to make such a helmet flashlight mount by myself using an LED (or is it an LED) flashlight I bought, Velcro, stitching needle and an elastic band. During the production process I took some pictures and posted them on the Internet together with the full recipe of "how it is done" for generations to come. I thought I should post it here so maybe it might help someone who loved night riding just like me.

    Yours truly,

  2. Welcome to the forum and thank you for sharing that. I'll have to give it a try!

  3. Hi kdelong,

    Could I ask you for something? - could you tell me what you think about "how clear is the article written"? As this is something technical I would love to know what people think about it. And spare no criticism! - I never learned anything new from a person who had the same opinion as me.

    Thank you for your interest :-)
    If you need any instructions, help or more details - simply let me know.

  4. I added a movie to demonstrate the use of the [ame="[MEDIA=youtube]4AdJ2sBhOKk[/MEDIA]]flashlight helmet mount[/ame]

    It is amazing what a short movie can explain in two minutes. It can save so much writing. The only problem: I love writing ;-)

    Have a nice weekend!

  5. I like it! think i'll have to copy your design. have you tested it for DRAG??? JK.

    thanks for posting.

    Hi CdnRider,

    thank you for reacting to my post :-)
    I am not sure I understand what DRAG is - could you elaborate on that?

    If you need tips just let me know. Actually I might give you one right away - you should consider sewing the Velcro to the elastic band using a sewing machine.

    Are you intending on using the UniqueFire S10 CREE LED flashlight like I did? I am simply interested in knowing whether people like this type of flashlight.

    Thanks again and have a nice weekend! :-)
