I ended up getting a #Fenix bike light -- pretty happy with it!

I wrote up my impressions here: https://www.brainonfire.net/blog/2025/12/13/from-bontrager-to-fenix/ (starting with my rather miserable history with #Bontrager lights).

Friendship ended with Bontrager; now Fenix is my best friend. (from meme template)

What a frustrating sound to hear the glass crash and See the shards fly. But i got a replacement quick. #repair #reperatur #reperatur #diy #schrauben #motorcycle #motorrad #rebuild #Wiederherstellung #condor #condora350 #military #Militär #Suisse #Swiss #schweiz #krad #headlight

Last night I thought the Iseki tractor headlights are a bit dim, should really pop some LED bulbs in there.

Not so easy. Turns out it has the most exotic sockets. APF (American Pre-Focus) triple-hole holders, also known as RP35 and various other misleading names that yield the wrong results.

There are 2 classic motorcycle shops in the EU that do sell these, but most are 6V (I need 12V) and all of them are priced for motorcycle polishers, not farmers.

I guess I'll see if I can just get replacement headlights with reflectors instead. Or fit a ROPS and some big work lights.

Taking photos with shaky hands is always a challenge. Breathing to calm down, or using higher shutter speed are options to take good photos.
With this shot however, I'm happy with how things are :-)

TIL: replacing #headlight bulb on #Opel / #Vauxhall #Corsa C is a cursed job, requires lowering whole entire bumper to get the headlight unit out and then the ambient temperature sensor needs to be put back into the bumper..

Opel / Vauxhall Corsa A (2005) with front bumper lowered

the connector for the dipped beam headlight, hard to get to without pulling the whole unit forward (hence having to lower the bumper)

the ambient temperature sensor springs out of the front bumper, it needs to be put back in (it is near the number plate on the left hand side of the car looking from the front)

I had to buff my own headlights the other day for the first time and let me tell you what. The results were so satisfying.

Well I'll be buggered. Turns out you can clean your car headlamp exterior with bog-standard toothpaste. Save yourself a few bob on fancy cleaning fluids and nick a blob of tooth goo.

A car headlight with a microfibre cloth and tube of toothpaste resting on top of it. The left hand side of the headlight has been scrubbed using the cloth and a thumbnail-sized blob of toothpaste. The right hand side is untouched for comparison.

@MLE_online that green can is a #headlight?

1971 Vintage Motorcycle on Display

The image displays a vintage motorcycle, likely from the 1970s, parked outdoors with a natural backdrop.
It has a classic design, featuring a prominent round headlight and a rectangular gas tank adorned with badges or logos.
The seat is small and flat, suggesting it is a single-seater model, possibly intended for touring or casual riding rather than long-distance cruising.

@Basmitharts: I'm a bit late for #WeirdCarMastodon QOTD show from Friday, but here are few pics of my #Citroën #2CV after I bought road-legal #LED #headlight inserts for it at the 24th World Meeting of 2CV Friends 2023 in Switzerland. The difference in night sight quality compared to the previous (already aftermarket) H4 inserts is huge, but adjusting the headlight cases' inclination (with a 19mm box-end wrench / ring spanner 🤪) was tedious.
