I was looking through the forum looking for a link to a small rectangle 9v/12v rechargeable battery that would work with a light like this

Motorized Bicycles Gas Bike Engines Gas Powered Bikes Motorized Bicycle Parts

Where to look???

I don't know,thats weird that it uses a 9v battery.

I have seen them before on a couple bikes. But I have no idea where to look for them. I tried surfing the web but no luck!

If you wanted a regular 9v rechargable battery you could get one anywhere,but if you want a larger one that will last longer heres a link:
Meijer: Fisher Price Power Wheels 6-Volt Rechargeable Battery

Game Feeder Batteries - sealed batteries and chargers

Being an LED bulb, you can run it off any voltage you want- just make sure the resistor is the right size and value.

So what do I need to make this light work on my bike, I dont want it to connect to the white wire.

Led light, 12v battery, what else???

Im no electrician. Should I get those 2 things first.??

Should I get a 6v or a 12v rechargable battery??

I use a 12v 7ah battery with a 12v 20w halogen bulb in the front light and a 6 led marker light for the tail
I get approx 3 hrs of very bright light before it needs to be trickle charged
