But I digress.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you can see the benefits of LED lighting on your bike \u2013 low power use, instant-on and high visibility \u2013 but don\u2019t want to mess about mounting smaller units, Cyron have developed these 2-inch ACT11 \u2018bulbs\u2019 called \u201cThe Torch\u201d, which they say are the brightest LEDs available for the application, bar none. The \u2018T\u2019 in their model designation seems to suggest a unibody, with an aluminium heatsink round the LEDs, rather than the usual AC11 which has a connector and the LED array connected by flylead.<\/p>\n<p>With plenty of lumens \u2013 whatever happened to watts? \u2013 and a wide 120-degree viewing angle, they comprise an outer ring of white LEDs as a halo round the main indicator light, and look like they simply slot into an existing bulbholder, in which case you want to make sure you\u2019re running clear or smokes lenses.<\/p>\n<p>There are many options, in terms of colour and applications, and I\u2019m going to leave you with the link to their website, and see if you\u2019re as confused as I am \u2026 not least because the ACT11s are so new that they\u2019re not listed at the time of writing.<\/p>\n<p>What I can tell you is that the AC11s are sold as pairs and are in the $80 bracket.<\/p>\n<h5 style=\"text-align: right;\">cyronmotor.com<\/h5>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Amazing how things stick in your head, even when they\u2019ve got no reason to be there in the first place: I\u2019m far too young to &#8230; <\/p>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/american-v.cso2w.com\/hub\/torchy-the-battery-boy\/\" class=\"more-link\">Read More<\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":3917,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"cybocfi_hide_featured_image":"","_jetpack_newsletter_access":"","_jetpack_dont_email_post_to_subs":false,"_jetpack_newsletter_tier_id":0,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paywalled_content":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"Torchy the Battery Boy","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[94],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-3914","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-new-products"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"https:\/\/american-v.cso2w.com\/hub\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/09\/Cyron-Torch-copy.jpg","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p9yyfo-118","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/american-v.cso2w.com\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3914","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/american-v.cso2w.com\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/american-v.cso2w.com\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/american-v.cso2w.com\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/american-v.cso2w.com\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3914"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/american-v.cso2w.com\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3914\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4046,"href":"https:\/\/american-v.cso2w.com\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3914\/revisions\/4046"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/american-v.cso2w.com\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3917"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/american-v.cso2w.com\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3914"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/american-v.cso2w.com\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3914"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/american-v.cso2w.com\/hub\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3914"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
