Bike Flashlight holder - Skilhunt H04

thingiverse

Designed to hold Skilhunt H04 series right angle flashlights to use as a "good enough" bike light. Main reason to its complexity is because I wanted to create a cut off reflector design to prevent blinding on-coming traffic (an understated but real risk, its also not polite to pretty much everyone around you and makes cyclists look bad) Main application for near area illumination by using a headlamp type flashlight rather than a light with a more focused beam. For handle bar diameter around 24mm (fits fine near stem of mountain and road bike) space in holder is 25mm diameter (flashlight body is 23.6mm diameter) scale the model down if you want a closer fit One thing to note is that the light beam is close to the handle bars so brake and shifter cables could get in the way and create shadows. If there is enough interest I may modify this in the future. I have also uploaded the SolidWorks 2017 files, please refrain from criticism I am aware it doesn't have good CAD modeling etiquette/processes I recommend printing in PETG as it is better suited for this application (exposed to the elements, not as brittle as PLA) having said that I am currently using a PLA printed version 1 as its a work in progress. ***Version 2*** Addition of 2 pressure tabs in attempt to keep the light from rattling in the holder, it is untested as of writing. I am currently using version 1 with 2 bike inner tube rubber bands, one near the clip attachment and one near the bottom which also seems to work.
