Well, that's the head scratcher. I didn't notice any step-down in power (maybe I'm just clueless!). It went from full-on bright, to nothing. Like a switch was thrown. I don't know if maybe my powering up from low-beam to high as I prepared to enter the dark MUT was the straw that broke that camel's back. I didn't ride today (ran in the a.m. and a retirement party to attend this evening), but tomorrow will be the next test. I do know I'll be packing the Dinotte in my pannier, tho!
