I was looking for a powerful and rechargeable lamp on the market for biking at night, but could not find something I liked.
I then went to a store near me and bought an external battery, usb lamps and a smartphone holder for bike

The advantage is that if I break down at night, I have an effective way to light up to repair, and if I have no battery on my smartphone, I can charge it.
I also use this lamp for everything, lighting up at night or in dark places. It is a bit bulky but very useful for many uses, camping, DIY, bicycle, hiking.

This lamp is cheap, $ 19, and very simple to make.
