Out With the Old; In With the New
Jan 1 or at least before my first bike commute of the new year,
I always replace the batteries in my two winter bike cycle computers. I also replace the 2A/3A batteries in my secondary headlights and tail lights. They will work all through the next year. The two road bikes are in hibernation in my cellar, but will get the same treatment come March or April. I replace the AA/AAA batteries with alkyline versions having found that the rechargables aren't always guaranteed to provide enough power, particularly for a headlight, when you need it several months from January. I use rechargables now for most all my battery needs. But not for the bike lights. Not certain how long a cycle computer battery, or even a head or tail light will last. They seem strong enough at the time of replacement, but I feel this is the time to replace the old stuff and bring in the new for the coming year. Seems to have worked well for me over the years. Anyone else have a New Year's "procedure" for their bikes? SMH |
