Rob's Dimmer Control (schematic)
This is the second control circuit tried, and it actually works, so that's a plus 
Most of what you see here is for a nice low battery warning feature which will 'blink' the main lights about 4 times a minute when the battery is getting low. The plan was that there would be a complete cut-off a little later. Cunningly though, this complete cut-off caused a feedback effect and actually meant that the lights dim very nicely as the battery discharges.
If you're not interested in this warning the only stuff of interest should be the 270+500 trim and 470+1K trim resistance networks and switch between them. If you don't want dimming of course, forget that part.
Video footage on the site
I don't know about everyone else, but I think that it would be a good idea to be able to submit movies on the site instead of just images. I am aware that movies will be harder to load and download but I think that it will give a great new perspective. We should be tecnically advanced with our site so we can show everyone what we can do. We can also get some really great stacks on video. This is just a thought. What does everyone reckon?

15 October - Terrey Hills
We organised this ride for some folks who were keen to get some mountain biking under their belt for a 36 hour 150km Run, Ride, Swim and Abseil race coming up... Welcome to Steve, Dale and Asher, who did brilliantly and we'll see you out there on the trail again soon I hope.
Wow, what a turnout. 19 riders, I think this has broken the record, whatever that was! After yesterday's heat it was a beautiful cool morning. Marred by some dog troubles (Celia's Labrador sucked down too much mud and Christina's dog threw a fit at not being allowed to go). Some great stacks and we were lucky enough to catch one on camera. It was funny, Greg said, let's wait at the bottom and get some photos, we might even get someone falling off.. chuckle, chuckle.. and.. well, check out the day's photo gallery for more...
Asides from having photos of you sweating, puffing and bleeding published on the Internet, I had an absolute blast and for such a large number of riders it worked out really well. There was a small breakaway at the end, but fortunately they got back early enough to order a coffee for me - Thanks Greg!
