Homemade Halogen Bike Light

Step 4 Battery Connections

For this part I have used cannibalised jack sockets from an old mixer. I then used some angle aluminium and drilled holes big enough for the sockets. The sockets were installed then I used double sided sticky pads to attach the bracket inside the battery case. The jack sockets have two terminals each. I simple made copper wire jumpers to link both together and and then soldered the two core cable so I had one positive and negative connection. Basically its in PARALLEL connection. Glue gun was used just to insulate the wiring.
