But there will be more. And the price will come down. Yeah, this particular implementation is expensive. But there will be more. And the price will come down.

I'm expecting the bats to last for at least a few months or a year.

They should come up with something that would light up a vest as you run; I'd buy that in a heart beat. That’s the beauty of LEDs; they take next to nothing to power.

My huffy as a kid had a light driven off a flywheel on the front wheel; but incandescents use a TON of power per lumen. LEDs, on the other hand, are stingy. Great idea. May need to see if I can find a generator to backfit... I’m diggin’ the idea of doing this with LEDs.

It's a shame that sort of technology isn't used more often. Cool idea. It’s a shame that sort of technology isn’t used more often.
