Ok besides this site making my iPhone flip out... I can not upload a photo to save man kind. I have spent; I still can't believe it, 11 hours trying to post this with pics, can't be done. So if you guys can't picture what I'm trying for then sorry for the wast of time. My project: I have run in to two identical sets of Nite Rider DIGITAL. Not sure of the year but they are duel halogen each with a water bottle shaped battery/casing. They are in really really good condition, an me being a DIY guy I figure I can gut them an use the volume, meaning the battery holder size, can't stand the length of battery's on the 2500SURFAS, to make a set of 6000 cheap-lumen monster(s) using some CREE XPG I think there called? They are rated at 1500 lumens each, 3000 lumens each set, found them on LEDsupply.com an that's were I plan on getting most of my supply's. My main questions are is it worth it? Will there be too much heat in the light housing being it a hard plastic, maybe magnesium? An I want 5 hours of full power, doesn't have to be exact, I just want to not have to worry about my batteries, every mans dream. I also want to find out we're I can find heavy duty wire housing? Thanks!
