Do the batteries last much much longer with LEDs?
Suppose to.

Looks like a power hog.
Reminds me of the Griswold Ford Country Squire with the extra multiple tail lights .
Ford got one pair of tail lights.
Mercury got two pair of tail lights
Griswolds wagon got, what, four pair ? :-)

I wish they all specified:
• brightness in lumens
• run time
But I guess that would make it too easy to compare. :dunno:

Bought a 5 watt flashlight that works with off one AA battery - it has been very handy for inspections at work. 3 of the maintenance guys had me buy one for each of them. Their 3 watt/1AAA light works good as well.

I have a Romisen and a Ultrafire (chinese "crap"), and they're really nice. I've been using them on my bike, and they're bright and durable. Both use 1 AA battery, and last about an hour constant.
I bought mine here:

the only numbers you need to know are wattage/power cumsumption and lumens. different batteries have different capacities, so runtime is impossible to quantify without a known standard.
