How to run Christmas Lights on your Bike




Here's what you need:

1) Bike (I'm assuming you already have one...)

2) Christmas Lights - 25' length. Available in your attic, or any local retailer

3) Decorative Light - Star, Angel, anything that glows. Available at your local retailer

4) Lead-Acid battery - 12V, 7AH, from All Electronics:
Battery $22

5) Lighter Jack (optional) - I used a "Y" adapter and just cut off one of the sockets. You can buy a "Y" from All Electronics:
Adapter $3.65

6) Inverter - Just a small ~75W inverter should work, like this one from All Electronics:
Inverter $14

7) Crimp terminals - Also available at All Electronics:
Crimp Terminals $2.50
Total Cost: $20-$60
