Okay! My tail light problem was because the Acerbis wires on the tail light harness were spinning around and touching each other. I "engineered" a Ford Aspire tail light

However, I probably threw in a higher wattage bulb. Now she dims like hell when i hit the brake. Now... What do most of you use as batteries? I've been reading and some people on thumpertalk use 10 NiMH A cell batteries. Suggestions? I never ride this thing at night and I'll NEVER be offroad at night. I do'nt want to have to charge it everytime I ride it either.
