What angles will the standard mounts be capable of?
Hmm. Well, each mount is designed for the truck specifically, with a general tilt towards 30 or 35 degree mounts, for all of the mtb ones.
Accounting for the angle of the trucks, and tilting the lights down, most of them are pointed 4.5 degrees down. I have some other angles available for if the user has a unique setup. +4.5 degrees more, and one that tilts it up 1.5 degrees.
For the BN mounts, I based it off a 50 degree truck angle, but like I said those are still somewhat in progress so I’m trying to figure out if further adjustment is required.

yeah, their imagery and advertised lumens are laughable at best.
That particular torch blazes like mad running off 3 x 18650 batteries but not for very long, wouldnt want to do over 15km night ride on it (10km is my work run) but when its fresh the spread is awesome too, lights the whole width of the road.

I was using some generic rechargeable ones I made mounts for but then I swapped to moon’s matrix hanger and it didn’t fit so I’ve been lazy and only using my helmet light

The link for the ones I had is dead but it was similar to this
Just wrapped them around the hanger and bolted through the brake hole with an m8 bolt

What angle do you guys mount your lights at?
Mine are mounted at about 5 degrees down - they have a pretty flat beam tho

I found some good looking rear red LED lights that can be powered off 12s battery voltage.
This one even has turn signals! 
They’re pretty expensive from this seller though.

Hm that’s cool I haven’t seen that one before
If you put strips of reflector tape on those motors, you’ll get a pulsating effect while you’re moving. I saw a video clip somewhere long ago but couldn’t find it again.
The reflector tape peels off and makes a flapping noise eventually, and then breaks off in pieces.
Ask me how I know
