Hey Utku,
Yes, I think there are probably a lot of different ways that you could do this.
Probably one of the easiest ways would be if you had a solar array that could output voltage in the 12V to...

BRAVO!!! Probably the coolest long-distance ride summary video I've seen yet. Thanks for taking the time to put it together. The night scenes were really cool. The sound track perfectly...

Hey Ben,
I think that it would be possible, but not without some conditioning circuitry and a battery between the hub and the light. The basic idea would be to have a "throttling" battery charger...

Hey David! All good questions! I can give you my own experiences with the light, but maybe some other folks can chime in as well. With regard to riding in and out of shadows on a clear day, I...

OK, but just be super sure that the strap can handle the weighted load of the light (especially over bumps). I'd hate for it to come off while riding and cause an accident!

Also, you might...

Hey David,
In this case, you'll need to try clamping to one of the seat stays. I'd recommend around mid-way down, probably in the middle of the "red" decal on the RIGHT hand seat stay since I think...

Thanks to one of my recent customers for sharing these great pictures! Dual 1300s up front (shown with fluorescent green filters here) and horizontal rack-mounted DS-500 in rear. Talk about a sweet...

Thanks for sharing this David. Sounds like you're on a great adventure!
Looks like the Lupine bracket has a weak spot for sure...

I think you'd have to put a direct hit on the DS to do any...

Just shipped another taillight to the UK today, so the "club" grows by one more ;)

I might add that I'll stand by the light (if it ever needs service) no matter who buys it! :)

Here's another on-bike video from a customer (thanks Jason) pretty much during worst case scenario conditions...riding directly into the sun, low on the horizon. I'm sure we all try to avoid this...

One of my New Zealand customers has some good YouTube content on good passes from vehicles since he's been using the DS-500.

His comment from YouTube:
"When I upgraded my DiNotte 400R to a...

Thanks for all the great pictures D!
It's always hard to convey with images what the eye is really perceiving, especially with the red taillight. Here's a cool video from another customer showing...

Probably 6 or 7 in the UK.
They are in LOTs of other countries around the world. Close to 400 in service now, but definitely not in Serbia or Bulgaria. You'll be the first!

Dinotte tried in a big way. When I first introduced the DS-500, people would call Dinotte and ask if they new of my light and how it compared to the Dinotte offering (the 400R), and then they would...

That'd be cool for sure, but definitely a dream for another day. It's a minor miracle that the DS-500 exists at all, let alone in the refined state that it is now. Most folks balk at the price of...

Hey David,
Welcome to the forum! Yes, the basic design (from an electrical standpoint) hasn't changed much, but the original 495 estimate was a theoretical estimate only (since I don't have my own...

There are DS lights running around on a LOT of high-end diamond frames out there, but they play nice on the trikes and recumbents as well. Here are a few good shots from recent customers. I would...

So, you've taken the time to read the reviews and the technical specifications, and now you'd like to try one of these lights for yourself?
All you need to do is head on over to the on-line store:
...

Hey SS,
Your bike geometry is very similar to my wife's bike... so just out of curiosity, I installed an H32 at the bottom of the seat post and measured and it sticks out just under 3/4". Visually...

Hey SpinningSprockets,
I can tell you that I've never heard anyone comment that there was ever an issue with leg strike. When I run on the seatpost, I can't even touch it with my leg if I try. ...

You'll shell out some bucks for this mount and the adapter, but if you just have to have a seat rail mount, this is about as slick as it gets.
Hat tip to Tony for for making me aware of this setup!...

New user video from a customer over at MTBR. Head-to-head comparison with the Dinotte Daytime. Both were being run at their respective highest power levels for comparison. Obviously you would...

Build 4 user's manual now available! Still making a few tweaks here and there, but fairly complete.
For now you can get it by going to the DesignShine google-site HERE and selecting it from the...

Hey "Shark,"
I pretty much put my head down this weekend and got as many taillights finished as I could. Got 27 completely finished with another 10 in the works. Yours will be coming out of that...
